Available in paperback from Head Shot Press.

Available in Kindle from Amazon.

A provocative collection of short noir stories, meet tales filled with grief, longing, ageing, regret, and of course violence and death, tales that slash through niceties and plunge you into the reality of life. Whenever I pick up a book by Maxim Jakubowski I always know my emotions are going to be tested and provoked. This collection feels like a very personal love story to noir. The tales have a sharp poignancy, whether secretly slicing a hidden space in thoughts waiting to catch you unaware, or getting hold of your feelings and giving them a good hard shake. My imagination took flight as the words wrapped themselves around me. I loved the tributes to J.G. Ballard, while Cornelia has to be a favourite, oh, and you may just find yourself meeting the author along the way too. By the end I found myself pondering, thoughtful, as though I was waiting for something just out of reach. Death has a Thousand Faces allows you to step off a springboard into a darkly poignant freefall, I just had to raise a glass to Maxim and choose it as a Liz Pick of the Month.
