Thirty Hours with a Corpse and Other Tales of the Grand Guignol

Thirty Hours with a Corpse and Other Tales of the Grand Guignol
by Maurice Level
Collected 2016 Dover Publication

All of Maurice Level's short horror and suspense fiction.  Short contes cruels with twist endings, though many of them are more existential and depressing than terrifying.  Think Albert Camus meets Roald Dahl.  Very short, very basic tales.  Hard to summarize without spoiling the twist, as the twist is written into the premise of the stories.  Not many surprises here, but it's no less satisfying because of it.

Available on Kindle from Amazon.

Look for more horror in the Trash Menace Bookstore.
