Synopsis

The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Kiss, Kiss, Roald Dahl's dark collection of devious, shocking stories for adults from the master of the unpredictable. This brand new recording is brought to life by an all-star cast including Tamsin Greig, Stephanie Beacham, Stephen Mangan, Derek Jacobi, Adrian Scarborough and Juliet Stevenson.

What could go wrong when a wife pawns the mink coat that her lover gave her as a parting gift? What happens when a priceless piece of furniture is the subject of a deceitful bargain? Can a wronged woman take revenge on her dead husband?

In these dark, disturbing stories Roald Dahl explores the sinister side of human nature: the cunning, sly, selfish part of each of us that leads us into the territory of the unexpected and unsettling. Stylish, macabre and haunting, these tales will leave you with a delicious feeling of unease.
