The Midnight Hour

Nights are when the small choices get loud. In this collection of short stories, kitchens blaze, rooms hush, rivers remember their path, and love tries to keep its promises. From blue–collar midnights to tender dawns–and the nightmares in between–Brandon Perkins writes the lives that run on coffee, habit, and hope. Some stories go quiet. Some go for the throat. All of them listen to the hour when the world changes temperature.
