Sloane Englewood: Web of Lies


Sloane Englewood jumped into the Volkswagen Polo Mk2 and sped away as fast as he dared down the wet dirt track. He was tired and filthy. Every muscle in his body ached and he could feel a fever coming on. He hadn't been prepared to spend a rainy night in the woods, hiding from Scorpion Agents and fearing an ambush behind every tree.

Flat Huntsman Spider

Delena cancerides
It's an arachnophobe's worst nightmare! Aside from the one with the 6 foot spider. Or the one where your auntie turns into a spider and says "kiss your auntie good night! Aaaahahhahaa!" Or the one where you wake up one morning and you've turned into a spider, and instead of developing a new sympathy for spiders you just scream and scream because there's a giant spider on your bed.
