Barb
Goffman Presents: Restoration by
Art Taylor imagines a world where, for a fee, a loved one can be duplicated as
a sort of insurance against the worst. By buying a policy, one could ensure
that in the case of an unexpected death due to a car accident, plane crash, or
some other unpredicted traumatic event, a clone of sorts would be created to
take the place of the recently departed loved one. The slick brochure calls it
“victim replacement”” and the husband is proving to be a hard sell though the
wife seems to be interested.
So
begins the tale which originally was published in Crime
Syndicate Magazine: Issue 1 comes to life here as part of the Barb
Goffman Presents series published by Wildside books. The tale was a
good one back when it first appeared and is still a good one now five years
later.
