A Time for Death

<p>We are all at the mercy of time moving towards a significant moment. This collection of stories takes us through the events leading up to death and beyond for a number of characters living in different periods of history. They meet their maker in a variety of circumstances which are rarely peaceful. <br />“His last breath choked out without ceremony as Joe’s boys went through his pockets and relieved him of every dime. What did a corpse want with money after all?”( A Deadly Game) <br />Taking the action further the dead come to terms with their new situation some with difficulty. <br />“He’d just died but here he was not knowing what would happen next. Expecting nothingness real peace an end to the ego that was Peter Tearson; yet the end had not come: an end of a sort but what end or what beginning? He didn’t know because it had never occurred to him even as the remotest possibility.”( Crossing Over)</p>
