A wildly entertaining collection of interconnected stories filled with monsters, myth, and personal mysteries – blending speculative and crime fiction – that reflects our fractured yet shared global reality in which borders blur, consequences ripple, and no one and no story exists in isolation.
Every story follows a distinct agent of the Speculative Detective Agency as they confront cases that defy conventional logic: haunted environments that resist documentation, an age-shifting operative undercover in a school, a detective partnered with a relentless wisecracking android, an office staffed entirely by functional zombies, and a deeply personal mystery involving a husband who has inexplicably become the moon. Together, these stories create a mosaic of strange investigations grounded in emotional stakes, wit, and sharp storytelling. The anthology boasts more than twenty stories blending classic investigative elements with science fiction, fantasy, and horror.
Contributors include Lincoln Michel, Monique Laban, Richie Narvaez, Stephanie Nina Pitsirilos, Karlo Yeager Rodríguez, Heather E. Ash, Alex Hernandez, Cayetano Valenzuela, and Amber Sparks
