FANGORIA gives MERCY 3.5/4 Skulls - "Dunham has channeled his many brushes with the other side into the exquisitely rendered, lyrical supernatural hospital thriller MERCY." http: //www.fangoria.com/new/mercy-book-review/ "Part medical horror, part supernatural suspense, MERCY is a hard-hitting fever dream of a novel. I enjoyed the hell out of it " Tim Waggoner, author of The Way of All Flesh and Eat The Night "Pain and poetry flow in equal measure through these pages. Dunham's prose strikes deep and hits all the right notes. MERCY is unforgettably vivid." David Dunwoody, author of Hell Walks and The 3 Egos William Saint is dying of cancer. On most days death seems like a humane alternative to the treatment. Stricken with fever, William is rushed to Mercy-notorious as a place to send the sickest of the poor and uninsured to be forgotten-and finds the hospital in even worse condition than his previous visit. The grounds are unkempt, the foundation is cracking, and like the wild mushrooms sprouting from fissures of decay around it, something is growing inside the hospital. Something dark. It's feeding on the sickness and sustaining itself on the staff, changing them. And now it wants Willie.

Mirrors are fascinating. They reflect everything accurately the things that are in front of them, or do they? Scientists were at one time attempting to create a mirror which showed everything the way the viewer would see it, not the back-to-front reflection we are used to. Quite what that would do to our minds is anyone's guess… Mirrors can be menacing. They can reveal our innermost fears – sometimes showing us those fears in ghastly and horrific forms. Mirrors can speak, according to the fairy tale, giving the viewer what she wanted up to a point, until it no longer became the truth. Mirrors hold many secrets. This anthology reveals some of those secrets and horrors as the talented writers who have allowed me to use their work explore in tales of woe, blood, gore and murder. Here are the real nasties hiding behind the silvered backs of seemingly innocuous mirrors. Look in them at your peril.
