People have been talking about selling the same way for years. They might use different phrasing, but they’ve been saying the same things. “Don’t take no for an answer”! “Always be closing"! “You’re either born to sell, or you’re not". Well, guess what, times have changed. You don’t have to sell like that anymore! And no, you don’t have to be born with “the sales gene”.

Alec Reid’s ghosts of the 21st century seldom lurk in old houses or waft across chilly moors. His dark tales may breathe alongside the supernatural, but they take place in broad daylight, in our daily lives. Their themes include dead warriors resurrected via Bluetooth, Rumpelstiltskin in the suburbs, an algorithmic fear of ghosts, and the shattered dreams of immortality. The world they describe is the one you inhabit, but you would live in terror were you to recognize it for what it is.
