In Reset, author Timothy Benson offers contemporary stories of
ordinary people who encounter unexplainable and life-altering
situations, often of their own making. Unprepared for the things
they face, they struggle to change the course of events before they
reach the point of no return.
In "Whatever You Say," a young man's journey toward a new start
begins with a white lie. The lie leads to another, then another,
until the man's real identity starts to blur with a new persona
that threatens to ruin his plans.
An incredible string of luck makes a businessman's life seem too
good to be true in "Way North of Lucky." He soon realizes his good
fortune has a negative and dangerous effect on everyone around him,
leading to a frightening conclusion about his future.
"The Almost Life of Leonard Paduszka" tells the story of three
imaginative young people who concoct a scheme to create a fake
person. The plan succeeds beyond their expectations, until a
homeless man gives their faux man more reality than they
intended.
"The Bandit and the Barista" recounts the story of a man whose
gambling addiction leads him to plan a crime that, at first, seems
foolproof. When his plan to temporarily blame a total stranger goes
awry, he scrambles to save both the innocent man's future and his
own.
Rich in visual imagery, memorable, offbeat characters, and dark
humor, the stories in Reset offer a view of the often strange and
dangerous ways ordinary people navigate through modern culture.
