          "Whatever you do, don't let them inside."
          
          Liam is a new father struggling to adapt to life with a baby. Growing more sleepless and paranoid with each passing night, he wonders if the taps on the windows and mysterious faces at the door are all in his head. He'll find out the terrifying truth when the black-eyed children knock. 
          
          When the Black-Eyed Children Knock is a superbly suspenseful read. You'll never hear a knock at the door at night in the same way.
          
          Also includes five other short horror stories.
