About This Book

A small-time crook wakes to police scrutiny and later meets a diminutive, oddly proportioned stranger who knows he has been murdered. The visitor leaves an anachronistic three-dollar bill dated years ahead, prompting the crook to trail him to a suburban social gathering where his presence draws urgent attention. The plot follows the protagonist as unsettling clues accumulate, forcing him to confront foreknowledge and temporal dislocation while he struggles to decide whether the apparent fatal outcome is fixed, mistaken, or merely a rehearsal that can be altered.
