Narration Toward Books The Red Grouse Tales (The Red Grouse Tales)
The Little Dog and other stories. Comprising four very different adult, speculative, spiritual and philosophical novellas to intrigue, entertain and and keep you guessing. The Little Dog – a story of good and evil and retribution. Bill, a retired forester, recounts a week in his early working life when he was paired with an unsavoury workmate. This commences with them finding a little domestic dog sitting beside a forest haul-road way out in a remote part of the forest, but what is a little dog doing in such an unlikely location? As the week goes on it becomes increasingly uncomfortable, the little dog disappears, events take an unexpected turn and our young troubled and naive Bill starts to learn some awful truths. The Golden Tup - a dreadful tale of paradise being cruelly taken by latent evil. This tale opens with the shocking news that a nice young couple have killed their new born baby. How could they have done such a dreadful thing? Our narrator, Verity, recalls how the pair bought an old derelict farmhouse and commenced renovating it; creating their own paradise. However, their felling an old tree changed everything. The Crow - a poignant tale of misunderstanding, dying, bitterness and blame. As a child, David, is taken to a hospice by his mother where he finds himself listening to an increasingly mad tale told by a dying and embittered old Irish priest. But why do the old priest’s recollections of the school days and subsequent rise of a local councillor become so increasingly bizarre and bitter? The White Hart - a happy ghost story, if there can be such a thing! What might connect a chance encounter with a little albino deer, an equally unexpected meeting with a beautiful, but somewhat enigmatic young girl in a remote chapel, and a third, just as strange an incident, on a windswept hillside? Pete Montague, relates a redemptive, adult, speculative, spiritual and philosophical happy ghost story - if there can be such a thing! (Warning to sensitive readers; some tales do contain a tiny bit of bad language and references to sex)

Ill be honest, this is a difficult one for me to review. On one hand, the novellas within The Red Grouse Tales were so well written. They were rich in detail and characterisation; for example, the dialogue in The Crow was written phonetically whenever the Irish Father Patrick spoke which added another element to the reading experience and must have taken dedication and time to write. But on the other hand, I struggled to get into them. Despite all the positives, some of which I have already

I love short stories. With a busy life and little time to sit down, these stories fill a nice gap in the day. I found this book to be an immensely enjoyable read, with well planned and delivered stories. I particularly found The White Hart and The Little Dog to be great reads, and they were favourites. I loved Bill's relationship develop with the dog. The detailed and enchanting stories had a religious tone, which wouldn't be something I'd particularly choose, but however I found that the focus
