13 Tales of Brutality and Wonder

A human trafficking victim with too much life force to become anyone’s disposable girl. A werewolf retirement home at risk of being shut down by the state. A woman who decides to become a tree. An action hero whose superp2ower is compelling people to see the truth. A young baseball phenom who vanishes on the verge of stardom. A first family using power to cover up suicide.

Scott Michael Powers’ first collection of short stories offers a remarkable variety of tales ranging from humor to horror to historical, and from amusement to brutality to wonder. All are placed in memorable settings and populated by unforgettable characters of courage and integrity, albeit sometimes misapplied.
