Each action we take has consequences for ourselves and others. Some open opportunities. Some bring benefits. Others can cause disasters. Internationally award-winning author David A. Wimsett explores the consequences of different human actions and considers the ethical questions they raise in this set of speculative fiction stories. A powerful executive wakes up in hell to find fire and brimstone replaced with modern cities and unending opportunities, until a secret is discovered. Children of a space colony question the home their parents chose for them before they were born. A scientist discovers the secret of time travel and its challenges. In a future world where AI robots provide all goods and services and people can meet anyone instantly through virtual spaces with no need for physical contact, a police detective uncovers a conspiracy, but not the one he expected. Each tale follows characters as they reach crises in their lives that can change their futures for good or ill.
