About this listen

Before you go "behind closed doors" with Matt Shaw's anthology - Shaw invites you into the exclusive penthouse and private life of Duncan Whitfield; a man who has lost nearly everything with only his home left to be taken.

Desperate to keep some dignity and claw his way back to the top of society's elite, Whitfield comes up with a plan to raise the necessary funds to clear his mounting debt.

But is it too late for him?

The penthouse is just one room. Come in, explore, meet its resident and then - when you're done - feel free to check in with the other residents of the town's exclusive apartment complex, "The Watch Tower". Secrets will be revealed with the help of 10 authors.... Find the other residents here: smarturl.it/secretsunfold.

That Twist in the End

Perfect for a little snack read on the way to or from work or just folding the laundry. This story is about a guy in a penthouse who's lost it all and is doing a "Hail Mary" play before he loses his home. The story builds from low and depressing to straight savage. But in my opinion, it's the ending that makes this a 5 star rating. Mr. Shaw, you are brutal and I love it!
