Story 1 - Goet
Edgar Simmons delivers meals on wheels. He is good friends with one of his customers and agrees to buy her a jar of honey. What harm could it do? ‘Goet’ is a short ghost story and a modern take on a classic tale. The audio version is narrated by the brilliant James Gillies with exceptional sound fx by Martin Worrall.
Ever since Ian Holm chilled his bones narrating ‘The Horla’, Pete wanted to bring the story into a modern, down to earth setting. After 18 years of thinking about it, Goet has finally arrived.
The audio version of Goet is available as a zipped mp3 download here

James Gillies has been a familiar voice across BBC television and radio for nearly a quarter of a century. He has worked as an actor, continuity announcer, programme narrator and newsreader, even reading the shipping forecast. Trained at the Royal Scottish Conservatoire in the 1970s, he taught Speech and Drama and Theatre Studies for much of the next decade developing many of the country’s first school examinations in the subject. Finding himself in demand as a professional voice actor along the way, he was recruited by the BBC in the early 1990s. In 2013, he left in order to concentrate on his favourite part of the job: performance and, in particular, storytelling. Since then he has recorded numerous audiobooks for clients on both sides of the Atlantic. James lives with his wife and two Norwegian Forest cats in the picturesque old weaving village of Kilbarchan in the beautiful West of Scotland.
Story 2 - Thank You For The Music
When Lisa Hunter is told she is the last known survivor of the Middleton family, she inherits Middleton Manor, the former home of genius avant-garde composer, Charles Middleton. Her journey of self-discovery starts to uncover not only the exquisite creativity behind her family name but also an ugly truth that ruin and decay cannot erase. ‘Thank You For The Music’ is Pete Worrall’s second short ghost story.
At the launch of ‘The Unforeseen Children Of Olive Shipley’, Pete stated that after two more full length novels he wished to write a horror story. With a story as strong as this one, he felt he had to write it immediately. Even with a hardy stomach for such things, the midnight dog walks were always quite unsettling after every writing session for ‘Thank You For The Music’.
Thank You For The Music is exclusive to Kindle at this link.

Pete is currently working on a screenplay for ‘Thank You For The Music’ and is still busying himself with ‘The Mechanical Systole Hypothesis’.
