Broken Reflections

Montevideo, Cairo, London. New York. Miami. After 1945, a banned quantum device called the Mirror is back, smaller, portable, and hungry. It edits: memories, manifests, headlines, entire histories, until only one tidy truth remains. Broken Reflections is six interconnected tales from the Calderverse, set in the uneasy post-war years when the Cold War was still learning its own rules.

Max Calder and Alicia Rayes, the Bureau’s sharpest ghost, are the only ones cutting it down. Montevideo backrooms, Cairo safehouses, London Docks. Manhattan wire rooms, and Miami exile bars where time itself cracks.

Every valve they pull buys the world another day of honest chaos. They won’t stop the Mirror. They’ll just make sure reality keeps two sets of books.

1. The Montevideo Dossier. 2. Cairo Consequences. 3. The Montague Incident. 4. The Silent Glass Incident. 5. The East River Incident. 6. The Biscayne Incident.

Short Stories from the Calderverse. Cold War noir where the enemy is certainty.
