    About this ebook

    The Hotel Central hides a tragic secret that a handful of people know about and are powerless to stop. When Brian stops in for a drink one evening, he too becomes privy to the ongoing tragedy...and its potential target.

    "Tales from the Hotel Central" takes Brian to a world where the macabre is routine and hope, long buried, struggles to overcome despair.

    Tales from the Hotel Central
    Author

    Gil C. Schmidt

    Living in Puerto Rico, writing about the island and other places I imagine I can fix with my ideas. Love science fiction, fantasy, old-style westerns, military history, board games (strategy-type), playing sports, coaching youth basketball, cooking for friends and family and finding out what it's like to be supremely happy as a married man. (Awwwww...) Would love to visit Italy, Australia, English moors and that temple in Japan that appears on my favorite soy sauce.

      Nobody died that year. Nobody prospered. There were no births or marriages. Seventeen reverent satires were written – disrupting a cliché and, presumably, creating a genre. That was a dream, of course, but many of the most important things, I fi nd,
