Government Waste:
A Western Short Story
ASIN B07BC5VR2Q
I stumbled upon a different story but this author, it was Mitchellsville and it blew me away. I picked up that one because a different book by Scott Bell was in an email blast, Working Stuffs, That story is described as:
“In 2050, the government uses scientifically reanimated corpses to fill menial jobs. Out of work and down on his luck, engineer Joe Warren is coerced by a federal agent into infiltrating an insurgent group — and finds his loyalties tested. A page-turning dystopian read.”
It could not be much different than Mitchellsville, which I loved so much I picked up the other three published short stories. This is the third I have read and it is described as:
“Some people really need to be left alone. A short story about one such individual.”
This story had a very surprising twist. One I did not see coming at all. Like the other two stores I have read by Bell it is very well written. This story was shorter than the other two. And we are informed that it was previously published in the anthology "Desolation: 21 Tales for Tails", Dragon's Roost Press
It is another excellent story from Scott Bell and if you love a dark twist give this one a read.
