This is a trilogy that starts in a strange future where engineering of the human body – at least for the well-off – isn't just genetic. If you can afford it, and can source the right body parts, just about anything is replaceable....
The second story is set in present-day England, a multi-cultural society where not everybody behaves quite according to the accepted stereotype. It's about a hole in a road, but really it's not that simple....
Having visited one person's idea of what the future might hold and then had a brief rest in the present day, the third story travels back in time, to the heady days of the 1960s. The Americans were doing their best to bring about JFK's prophecy that by the end of the decade they'd have put a man on the moon and brought him safely home again – and, it has to be said, doing it very well. The Russians were the other runners in what was called at the time the 'space race'. It's not entirely impossible that there could have been a third runner in that race. Who's to say that what's in this story isn't actually true?
