Pomfret is the medieval name for Pontefract in Yorkshire, a place rich in history. Now it is the title of a book of short stories about the town, written by Yorkshire writers and illustrated by Yorkshire artists. A beautiful woman at the Liquorice Fair faces a supernatural killer. One family mourns its lost hero. Another family does battle with a witch. A man with a dying wife begins a guilty affair with a fellow choir member. Visiting the town's museum brings terrifying visions of slaughter to a bored teenager. Council officials wage war on hens. A railway signal box becomes the new centre of the Universe. Drunken youths out on a spree gain super powers - at a price! A vengeful stranger encounters a mysterious girl. A prime minister's visit is unexpectedly marred by a practical joke. Tragedy, comedy, wonderment and sex - all with a Yorkshire accent.
