LITTLE QUENTIN tells the story of an oversexed bunny, a murder, a cover-up and the discovery of a terrible secret. You wish it was only a dream!

In PIVOT a man who is witness to a murder and has taken pictures of the killer, has to run for his life. During the chase the prey becomes the hunter. All resulting in an unfortunate ending.
