Review: Barb Goffman Presents: Restoration by Art Taylor


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.

While I picked this up a few weeks ago when it was offered for free at Wildside Press, it does not come up there anymore and seems to only be available at Amazon.
