Contains 4 stories
The Black Cat
5 pp · fantasy

During Africa's violent Mau Mau uprising in the early 1950s, a European farmer named Tyre credits a sacred black cat statue with protecting his farm from destruction—a belief his skeptical friend Jed dismisses as pure superstition until a series of uncanny incidents suggest the charm may hold genuine power. When Jed accidentally shatters the figurine, he boards a plane home haunted by the consequences of his disbelief.

The Telegram
8 pp · drama

Five years after their release from a P.O.W. camp, four former soldiers receive a mysterious telegram signed with their old unit's code name—summoning them to a meeting at a hotel in Central City. When Tex Carmody, Jace Hanley, Steve Baraby, and Dan Forman arrive to answer the call, they discover none of them sent the wire, leaving them puzzled about who could know their secret signature and bond. As they reunite and reflect on their past, the weight of memories from their days in captivity—especially the sacrifice made by a fifth member of their group—begins to surface.

Up Yonder Glen
4 pp · science fiction

A jet fighter pilot obsessed with tracking flying saucers finally catches a radar signal in northern Scotland, only to discover that a legendary Scottish chieftain and his clansmen have been waging their own ancient battle against alien invaders in a remote glen. When Auld Angus reveals the extraterrestrials and their deadly weapons, the major must choose whether to join the fight or report back to his skeptical superiors—but the truth about his mysterious ally proves far stranger than any invasion.

The Primitive Parallel
7 pp · science fiction

Captain Mark Ellis's patrol ship is knocked off course by a meteor storm and crash-lands on an uncharted alien world, where he's immediately arrested by a totalitarian secret police force that bears a chilling resemblance to Earth's worst political nightmares. Thrown into a political prison, Ellis joins a growing resistance movement led by a brave guide named Teena, and discovers that sometimes the struggle for freedom is worth more than the safety of isolation. In this tale set on a distant frontier, Ellis confronts what it truly means to stand against tyranny—and finds an unexpected reason to believe in tomorrow.
