About Grace Under Pressure
Hemingway once called 'guts' as 'grace under pressure'. So expect grace (for the most part) from unexpected quarters as Angel and Cutler present their first short story anthology. Meet a down-on-his luck supermarket worker who finds a plea for help scrawled on a shopping list: PLEZE HELP US WE R KIDNAPED. Follow an eco-tourist's frantic efforts to escape an African quarantine zone ravaged by a deadly virus. Finish off with a tour of the men's bathroom in the Vatican - where the world's unluckiest hit man tries desperately to get out before the Swiss Guard arrive. These tales and others await your reading pleasure in Grace Under Pressure, a five-story anthology of short stories from Angel and Cutler. Inside, you'll find suspense, mystery, and the occasional act of heroism.
