“Dead Air” brings readers to a time in the future, when Earth’s cities run out of oxygen. Jack Reese plans on heading to the hills, but he has something to do first. This story offers a different and refreshing twist on the end-of-the-world theme.
“Plastic” could easily be turned into a full-length novel—with a different kind of serial killer. Dr. Fairley is certain that Mary Cross is coming back to kill the doctors who performed her plastic surgery to her dissatisfaction. The only problem is that no one is listening to Fairley. This story is unique and very creepy.
