About this listen

Donald’s Sardine Shop—which was active in the old town of Celer, during the time of Joseph Walker and Sheriff Adrien Baker—existed primarily for the sale of good sardines, but it also inhabited a maniac hidden in plain sight.

A lifetime among fish, cut off from human contact, had slowly and eerily worked Donald down into madness; to the point where the voices taking hold of his brain began prompting him to do things unspeakably vile.

His life as a store owner—and psychopathic crackpot—is hereby recorded in intimate detail; for the purpose of informing future sardine shop customers of the underlying danger lurking behind those shop doors.

‘The Sardine Shop’, the new novella by Rob Ryan—author of ‘Erland’, ‘Clementine’ and ‘The Kallors’—is available now on Amazon.
