Hello everyone! It's that time. Time for another Mr. UnKnown post. This one is a shameless plug though (you all just going to have to deal with it). We all gotta eat, right? I need that money just like the next person. Seriously though, I am excited to drop my first story. It a little scribble called Harvester: Volume 1. It's kind of a reflection on current times. By that, I mean the seriously fucked up shit that keeps happening all over the country. It's a hard pill to swallow, I know, but Harvester is kind of one "answer" to the rising violence that might (theoretically) come to pass. Not saying it would...just saying it "might." I personally don't give two shits about scumbag assholes that decide murder, violence, raping, and other disgusting shit like that is acceptable. The only thing that really bothers me about this scenario is how it can be abused. In my head, that is the only real drawback to a real life "Harvester" scenario. Well, with all that in mind, here's the blurb. Check it out on Amazon and buy it (it's only a friggin dollar). Also, make sure to keep checking back for Volume 2 (coming soon).


The year is 2036. After several decades of escalating violence across the country (including more mass shootings, murders, rapes, gang violence, etc), the United States of America enacted the Criminal Prevention and Deterrence Act of 2019. The tech company, Griffon, created an algorithm that mines and analyzes millions of bytes of consumer, Internet/computer, healthcare data, etc of every citizen across America. The program then isolates certain behaviors and buying habits of criminals and potential criminals with a focus on murder, shootings, rapes, drug dealers, etc. That information is then sent to the Harvesters and the Harvesters go out and execute said person. Each Harvester is taken and “trained” to be a ruthless killer, and then “put” back in their life with their memory wiped. When they get instructions on a case, the Harvester part is woken up and takes control. This happens almost exclusively at night.

Lincoln Holmes wakes up outside with no memory of the night before. His body is aching. His head is killing him. And, to add insult to injury, he's being poked by some dude with a stick. He calls his wife, Hope. When she answers, she claims to have no memory of him whatsoever. With no idea what else to do, he decides to go home to her. He pulls up in front of his house and goes inside...

...only to be met by a woman claiming to be Hope but who is clearly not her. Not his wife.

Lincoln fights against police, mysterious agents, and even his not-wife to try and piece together what happened to him and figure out how to fix his broken life.
