In some stories, the characters encounter Fate in the guise of a stranger or unexpected visitor, or while experiencing significant – sometimes life-changing – events. In others, the characters are facing up to the effects of a fateful experience in their past.All the stories will leave you with as many questions as answers and make you think anew about the effect of Fate on all our lives.
