We are all at the mercy of time, moving towards a significant moment. This collection of stories takes us through the events leading up to death and beyond for a number of characters living in different periods of history. They meet their maker in a variety of circumstances which are rarely peaceful. “His last breath choked out without ceremony, as Joe’s boys went through his pockets and relieved him of every dime. What did a corpse want with money after all?”( A Deadly Game) Taking the action further, the dead come to terms with their new situation, some with difficulty. “He’d just died, but here he was, not knowing what would happen next. Expecting nothingness, real peace, an end to the ego that was Peter Tearson; yet the end had not come: an end of a sort, but what end, or what beginning? He didn’t know because it had never occurred to him, even as the remotest possibility.”( Crossing Over)
