An Alien Among Us

by Peter Murray

A physics experiment gone wrong becomes an unlikely attraction for the ultimate kind of thrill seekers in "C Port." It is year 1695, and paranoia of witchcraft is widespread among the colonists of Annapolis, Maryland. They soon learn that a group of African slaves brought something even more terrifying in "The Priest." In "Far From Me," a successful businessman has the same dream night after night that invariably ends in his violent death--on a Civil War battlefield. Is it simply an annoying pattern, or do the dreams serve some deeper purpose? These are three of ten short stories found in the diverse collection, AN ALIEN AMONG US, the first book by Peter Murray.
