Sixteen stories from the Kamini, Nikaia, and Drapetsona. From the dock of the Cretans, from the "Yparcho" tavern, from the DEI chimney in Keratsini. Stories about banks taking houses, houses catching fire, dreams turning to ashes. About the darkness that lives next door. Something will happen though, you'll see. Because where fear grows, so does what saves from fear.
