|summary=A collection of stories, each as different as their perception of the setting. This novel is as genre-defying and original as it is intriguing, inviting a second reading as the layers beneath the surface gradually emerge.

Communion Town – one city but it may as well be many as each person's perception of it is coloured by their experiences within it. Each chapter introduces us to a different story, a different viewpoint and therefore, practically a different city. Starting with the ominous, creepy story of Nicolas, through stories encapsulating such themes as recaptured friendship, murder and an enigmatic take on the life of a private investigator, we start to piece together the nature of Communion Town... or do we?
