About this book

From the legendary author Philip K. Dick, The Hanging Stranger is a chilling tale of an alien invasion that will leave you wrapped in suspense.

Step back into the Golden Age of science fiction with this masterful work by the prolific short story author behind blockbuster films such as Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Minority Report.

In this gripping short story, meet Ed Loyce, a store owner with a disturbing discovery: a stranger hanging from a lamppost. To his utter horror, the townspeople appear unbothered by the gruesome sight. As Ed investigates further, he uncovers evidence that alien insects have infiltrated and taken control of his once-idyllic town. As the web of deception deepens, Ed struggles to expose the real threat lurking behind every corner. With the danger increasing, he finds himself face-to-face with the authorities - but can they, too, be trusted?

The Hanging Stranger is an irresistible descent into the heart-pounding world of alien invasion. With its unique twists and shocking conclusion, this suspense-filled classic will have you questioning who to trust and what's really lurking in the shadows. Prepare for a masterful study in paranoia and creepy suspense that sci-fi enthusiasts and fans of speculative fiction won't want to miss.
