Originally a collection of three stories, this was extended to include a further four shorts.

 The Dividends of Love - A gift proves to have magic powers and promises a rich dividend, but adults don’t always understand magic.

The Body in the Blur - Your eyes can sometimes deceive you, but is it always worth seeking the truth?

The Confidence Trickster - A liar is brought to justice, but what if it’s telling the truth that hurts.

The Last Tree: A tale of a young girl stuck on an island, caught up in the arguments of the gods.
Cold Caller: Karl Walters tries to play a tele-salesman for a fool, only to discover that what’s on sale is too good an offer to miss. More fool Karl!
A Senseless Crime: a sci-fi crime mystery in a world where reality is adjusted and 'improved' by tricking our senses. But how do you know the world has gone rotten if you can't smell it?
The Posthumous Award: It's the annual award ceremony for the Rutledge Prize. Who will win the greatest science award ever?

“Like all great short stories, three surprising twists! They would make perfect stories for a modern day tales of the unexpected or Alfred Hitchcock presents!”
