(The Big Love Machine) Two lovers, flush with a big lottery win, struggle to decide how to spend their newfound fortune – until a shocking twist changes everything.

And can Isla ever move on from mourning him? (Sleeping Beauty #16) Imagine being chosen to sleep for a century until Earth recovers from climate change. What kind of society would you wake up to? (Anamnesis) These stories explore what falls out when the fabric of reality is shaken.
