    Berek Morris

    Berek Morris is a native Texan, born and raised in Austin, Texas. His family consists of many authors who have inspired him to put pen to paper and to become a writer himself. He wrote this horror anthology because he is fascinated with the human mind, the inner and outer thoughts that make us all tick. How two people can experience the same situation and walk away with two different interpretations intrigues him. This is the first book of many.

      Let’s Say

      Oct 7, 2022

      GRUESOME TALES FROM A BROKEN MIND

      Collection of Short Thrillers

      Private Eye

      The room is dark. It's late. Another sleepless night.

      A dim desk lamp sits on an old wooden desk with some paperwork and a dirty ashtray holding a still lit cigarette. File cabinets fill the room, some open, some frantically closed, with the only other furniture being a desk and two chairs.
