Publisher Description

In this short story from the bold, timely, sinister anthology Never Whistle at Night, Junior gets a brick to the head in a drive-by and six weeks later the creature Louis turns up with a sack of Junior's assailants' severed white heads. A wholly original and shiver-inducing tale, this is a celebration of Indigenous peoples’ survival and imagination, and a glorious reveling in one of the things an ill-advised whistle might summon. A Vintage Short.
