An imprisoned man is certain that his supposed murder victim is very much alive....A female driver is pursued relentlessly by a menacing figure in another vehicle....A young artist gets the biggest break of her career....A restless beauty manages the perfect birthday celebration...An escaped Iraqui on Saddam Jusseins death list pays an involuntary visit to his homeland. In each tale, human beings are given an oppurtunity to seize, a crucial problem to solve, or a danger to avoid. How will they react? How would you? Capping off the collecton are two additional rewards. In the final story Archer offers a choice of four endings. and buried in each story is another diversion, a red herring, which Archer challenges his readers to uncover. Twelve is a perfect score-good luck.
