Description

Presenting an engaging, suspenseful mix of paranormal stories, Reckoning takes you into the lives of ordinary people who face extraordinary and unexplainable situations for which they are entirely unprepared. In Solitario Road, a businessman's drive home on familiar roads takes him through a strange storm and an unexpected journey through the past. His unsettling encounters with people along the way take him farther away from the present and his own reality. Handshake is the story of a man whose routine medical procedure leads to a side effect that begins as an uncomfortable nuisance but quickly turns into a frightening threat to everyone around him. In 74 New Yorker, a man inherits his father's old car and discovers that a strange sense of empowerment comes with it. He soon finds his nostalgic connection to the car spiraling into a pattern of bizarre and risky behavior that has tragic results. Flagman tells of a retired art professor whose spontaneous act of protest against the Iraq War sets off a public reaction that he doesn't expect. When one of his students helps him continue the protest, they are faced with the dangerous consequences of waging peace. Rich in visual imagery, the stories in Reckoning deliver a powerful commentary on how the supernatural and reality can seamlessly entwine in the human experience.
