Jim Cue's first published book of short stories include science fiction and fantasy where everything is just a little "off" the worlds we know. "Braxton's Pride" and "Blame Not These Accursed Stars" tell two alternate stories of the short career of Jack the Ripper. In "A Baker's Dozen," college engineering whiz Chris Christopherson, in a case of mistaken identity, is kidnapped by the most attractive woman he's ever met; Allison Li Chen, the Commander of European Commonwealth Security (Space Division); on a collision course into uncharted Ja'an territory. "No King Cole" is an unexpected love story that pairs the irony of "The Gift of the Maji" with the deception and violence of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" in a world of shadowy cyber-doubles. In "There's Been a Change in Me," a whistleblower and his former secretary-turned-fugitive conspire to take on the Interstellar Corporation before it can make them, and their secrets, disappear. You'll find these stories, and more, in this page-turning debut.
