Sand, sun, waves, and unforgettable holiday journeys to heavenly bodies of water and exotic homes make up the dreams of summer, right? But not with these seven tales . . . far from it. Murder, blood, and death born from deception, hate, and lust are the norm for this gathering of beach yarns. Read them in the company of the light. They will force you to thank God that such scenes live only in the minds of authors . . . or do they?

None of us are perfect. We understand that. Even the most vain among us. We make a valiant effort to do the right thing, but we don't always accomplish what we set out to do. Still, we try. Then there are The Others. Those who embrace the dark side, their dark side. Included in that ominous embrace, we find those damning sins that were defined by the writings of John Cassain. Pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth. The Seven Deadly Sins. The very idea of them strikes a nervous chord deep down in all of us. These seven thrilling tales-written by seven best-selling authors-will explore those sins individually and, perhaps, cause you to think, deeply, if you dare to read them, that is.
