Description: Inspired by recent true events the all - original stories in Witnesses for the Dead are set in motion by the act of witnessing. The characters who populate these pages are not themselves the perpetrators of the crimes they see but as they grapple with what to do - take action or retreat into the shadows - their lives are indelibly changed. In Envy by Christopher Chambers a sweet shy wallflower looks on as something horrific happens in his neighborhood - revealing something horrific about himself. Agatha Award - winner Richie Narvaez's The Gardener of Roses sees a Puertorriquena college student on the run from the FBI for her accidental involvement in a 'terrorist plot. Anthony Award winner Gary Phillips confronts police corruption in Spiders and Fly. And the protagonist of A Family Matter by IPPY Award - winner Sarah M. Chen investigates the murder of a stranger leading her to question the political structure of Taiwan entirely. Other stories feature a brothel the film industry immigrant detention centers at the Mexico - US border World War II - torn France and the Covid - 19 pandemic. The stories are incisive unflinching wry dark and in some cases terrifying. You'll ask yourself: If I saw what they saw what would I do? With contributions from: Scott Alderberg Cara Black Christopher Chambers Sarah M. Chen Aaron Philip Clark Teresa Dovalpage Tod Goldberg Gar Anthony Haywood Darrell James Richie Narvaez Gary Phillips SJ Rozan Alex Segura and Pamela Samuels Young.
