It restlessly waits, in this spine-tingling selection of Tunku Halim's very best stories.TUNKU HALIM, with 13 books to his name, may very well be Malaysia's most prolific author in the English language. He has written five non-fiction books and five supernatural thrillers: two novels and three collections of stories.
