Colours (Unabridged‪)‬

There is an urban legend in Wrexham which tells of something not quite human. Forever on the peripheries of society, he stalks the night, living amongst the shadows and feeding on the scraps. His sallow complexion and reddened grin led to the sinister moniker Colours the Clown. Stories forged around the campfires and graveyards of this vicious bogeyman and, gradually, his savage notoriety bloomed.

Meanwhile, Bernie Davies is seeking one last haul before the holidays; he has habits he needs to fuel. Unable to resist the pull of one particular house, he has unwittingly set himself on a collision course directly with the nightmare that is Colours.

This is the debut novelette by author C S Jones.
