Zero's Hour by Eric Del Carlo

Tue, 09 May 2017 00:00:00 GMT

It is the not too distant future. Great strides in technology and social progress have come and gone - though not without their moments of controversy. Take for example the latest tech in homicide investigation. Now, law enforcement has access to witnesses they never used to - the victims. Yes, science has bestowed the power to resurrect victims of homicide (when deemed appropriate or necessary) for a limited amount of time in hopes they can answer the question of who murdered them. People mask their discomfort and unease by nicknaming the "temporary beings" ZEROS. And the amount of time? Exactly one hour. Come now and join Detective Emile Meckleberg and the freshly born/resurrected Alfeo Jurado - the investigation does indeed have profound revelations. But not what you might expect. It's time. The countdown is on. It's ZERO'S HOUR.
