Note from the Author Note from the Author A brief word about the stories. All the startling facts – the Bren gun carrier in the school, the ‘ruined city of Kor’ itself, the deadly euphoria of the pilot after the crash, the crazy events of the night of Operation Cromwell – are all either from my own experience or well-documented in studies of the time. However, the haunted shelter in Liverpool is, I think, no more than urban legend, though the pigswill dumps and drunks were all too real. Liverpool did have large brick surface shelters because lack of gardens in the poorer suburbs made Anderson shelters impossible.
