One Tale After Another by P J Cresswell

  • In the heat and humidity of a Central American jungle, a visitor views death reflected in the eyes of a voracious feline.
  • A man becomes desperate when his wife continually vanishes before his eyes, only to return moments later.
  • Experience the Fiji Islands, enjoying local hospitality while staying in traditional villages.
  • Popular entertainer Jazz returns home to where it all began.

One Tale After Another is a compilation of nineteen stories written by the author over a period of fifteen years. The diverse stories travel from Canada to New Zealand to Britain to Fiji and beyond, covering a period of time from the 1960’s to the present day. One story is by Peter’s friend, Larry Scott, who sadly passed away before his tale was published.
