The Missing Schoolgirl — Shelley Smith

A schoolgirl goes missing after speaking to a strange man. A jilted painter sets out to take revenge on his rival in both love and art. A room to let harbours a macabre secret. A man fears his soul has been stolen. A woman is haunted by visions of a lost child. An antiques dealer happens across a crook who has previously defrauded him. A foster child has a peculiar obsession with an old painting... Seven stories of crime, fear, and the mysterious workings of the mind.
