About this ebook

A gentle introduction to sci-fi—speculative but with heart.

In What Was Lost, a dingo disappears into the Australian outback, leaving behind a trail of questions. A time-travelling consultant sabotages his client’s love life—thirty years earlier. And in One Last Adventure, two young friends stand at the edge of goodbye, daring to imagine what comes next.
