The Bird Man

Harry becomes obsessed with the impossible dream of human flight, studying birds obsessively until he constructs a pair of wings to achieve it himself. When he finally succeeds in flying, his triumph turns to tragedy as the obsession that consumed him claims the life of someone he loves, setting him on a haunting path of isolation and transformation that he may not be able to escape.

Time Will Not Tell
6 pp

Corbett stands to inherit his uncle Edward's fortune—until his uncle announces plans to give it all to charity and cut Corbett's allowance in half, forcing him to actually earn a living. Desperate to prevent this reversal of fortune, Corbett hatches a sinister scheme during his uncle's solitary weekend at his remote lodge. But as Corbett makes his escape through a railroad tunnel, time itself may have other plans for a man who thought he'd outsmart fate.

It's Always Tomorrow

A mild-mannered office worker discovers he's receiving tomorrow's newspaper today—and when his prediction about a high-profile trial comes true, he realizes he can use this extraordinary advantage to transform his meek life. As Elmer Evans parlays his advance knowledge into wealth, power, and political ambition, he sheds his timid persona entirely, but a fateful morning threatens to unravel everything he's built on secrets he's kept even from his wife.
