Eleven stories. Eleven impossible situations. Eleven ordinary people forced to confront the extraordinary.
A schoolteacher drifts into the night sky.
A scientist discovers a solution that could save billions—if only anyone will listen.
A writer finds himself defending the rights of a machine that may have developed a mind of its own.
A coffee shop owner learns that the cockroaches beneath his floorboards have ambitions of their own.
In Murdering Tranquility & Other Stories, Scott Hertzog presents eleven tales of speculative fiction that blend science fiction, satire, humor, mystery, and wonder. From impossible technologies and unexplained phenomena to quiet revelations hidden within everyday life, these stories explore the moments when reality bends and ordinary people are forced to confront the unexpected.
By turns thoughtful, unsettling, funny, and deeply human, the collection examines themes of time, memory, identity, technology, and the strange mysteries that surround us. Whether facing bureaucracies gone mad, scientific breakthroughs, or encounters that challenge the nature of reality itself, Hertzog's characters discover that the universe is rarely as simple as it appears.
Perfect for readers who enjoy classic speculative fiction, The Twilight Zone, Ray Bradbury, and stories that combine imagination with heart.
