Havoc Shore is the perfect choice for any short story reader. From the first paragraph of every story, Maureen Cullen captures her audience by going straight in with the action. Each narrative has the perfect sentence structure, and powerful imagery.The author portrays female protagonists as strong, independent women, and she isn't afraid to touch on sensitive topics such as domestic abuse, alcoholism and juvenile delinquency.If I had to choose a favourite tale, and that is difficult because each one is a winner, it would be the chilling ghost story, 'The Boy on the Bridge'.I highly recommend the Havoc Shore short story collection and believe that every bookshelf should possess a copy.Patricia M Osborne - novelist, poet and short story writer.1960s Clydeside is lovingly and vividly recreatedCullen has a natural gift for the short story Alastair Mabbott TheHerald 10/07/25
