Synopsis

Haunting tales of imagination and consequence that linger after the last page.

This collection, Three Tales, blends Gothic atmosphere with strange invention and human drama. It opens with a Boston ghost story set on a historic street, then shifts to a dark, science‑fiction drama of an exotic android, and finally follows a wartime moral test that binds a family and a nation. Each tale crafts mood and mystery, inviting readers to weigh memory, science, and devotion.

  • A ghostly presence on Bowdoin Street reveals memory, place, and honor in a city of old wealth and whispered legends.
  • An eerie laboratory houses a brass android, where alchemy, architecture, and peril converge in a struggle between creation and conscience.
  • A carpenter and a veteran confront a child’s fate and the country’s wounds, weaving sacrifice, forgiveness, and renewed hope.
Ideal for readers who enjoy atmospheric storytelling that blends the supernatural, historical texture, and speculative ideas into compact, thought‑provoking narratives.
