Being a PI in the high-tech, magical city of Manzala requires more than street-smarts. Martin Aten makes do with a lifetime of experience in software engineering. Accompanied by the voice of his wife Jean and his memories of days gone by, he lives each life day-to-day, just scraping through.But every once in a while, a job comes along that's bigger than it looks. And when the city's most successful techno-dwarf hires Martin to recover a stolen, prized personal possession--the job already looks massive.From the dingy back-streets of Manzala to the planets beyond, this case is going to take Martin farther than any other case before. The hunt for a stolen item brings him new friends, new enemies, and--if he's very, very lucky--the chance to save Manzala from a danger it doesn't know is descending on it. Regardless, he knows he's not returning to Manzala the same man who left it.

In 2020, the COVID-19 novel Coronavirus came and our lives changed. We all quarantined. We shut down our economy. And we made sure to keep a distance of at least six feet in an effort to keep the virus from killing as many people as we could save. In the midst of this, the speculative fiction authors within this volume began to think about what life looks like if the quarantine doesn't leave. What happens if the illness keeps us all on restriction. Who will end up breaking that restriction? What will be their consequence? How will we exist, as a society, if we must keep our social distance? These pages explore that concept. The humor, the pain, the triumph, and the everyday humanity of a life in quarantine. A collection of twenty-one stories from across the globe, from India to Britain to Canada to the United States, and all of them about what life looks like in the near future if we remain...socially distant.
