A woman finds a Death Curse symbol scratched into the soap scum around her sink. A young boy watches his family fall apart after the death of his father. A butterfly chrysalis hatches, under the watchful eye of a hungry cat, and a teenage grim reaper's job is made harder by the boy who can see her.

Symbolic Death is a collection of sad, poignant, and darkly funny tales about death. If you like unique points of view, heart breaking moments, and a touch of black humour then you'll love Helen Vivienne Fletcher's new short story collection.
