'The Spots' by Paul Bassett Davies. 'The Unpicking' by Michael Button. 'La Mort de L'amant' by Stuart Johnstone. 'The Bear Trap' by Neil Hudson.

Members Reviews:
Six spine-chilling short stories
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, Six stories of around 20 minutes in duration each to give you something to do on the bus or train.
What did you like best about this story?
All the stories are good. My personal favourite isn't the actual winner but they're all worth listening to.
What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you had only read the book?
There were several performances as the stories are both narrated but the characters are performed by several people. None of them gave a bad performance.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not really. They are bite-sized stories and they can be listened to in one sitting but are probably better appreciated one at a time.
loved it
excellent book, kept me entertained greatly all different stories decent twists and thrilled me. I specially liked how the readers brought the characters to life.
Meh, won't recommend
I was hoping for a better read but of the 6 stories only 2 left me interested and keen to keep reading. I skipped through most of the others as they were tedious, even being as short as they were. Overall a disappointment.
