Synopsis
Sudden Impact is a collection of 15 short stories. These are not your ordinary "slice-of-life" stories. They will knock your socks off. Firmly planted in the sub-genre of "dangerous fiction" author Rick Lawler takes the reader on one wild ride after another. Each story in this collection was written to shock, frighten, upset, or smack the reader upside the head. Slightly over half the stories in this collection have been published before. The others are seeing the printed page for the first time between the covers of this book.
