In "The Prophetic Mirages," Gabe Larson, a man whose fortune was built on predicting markets, finds himself on an African safari when the enigmatic Green Glob grants him three visions of the future. As two of those visions unfold with eerie precision, he believes he can outsmart fate—until the third vision fails, leaving him bankrupt and questioning the cost of seeing too far.
In "Robot for Hire," Professor Sterling’s advanced creation, Automan, offers his services to the public—until Mr. Rankin, a cunning smuggler, tries to enlist him for a criminal scheme. With a built-in safeguard against wrongdoing, Automan carefully undermines the plan, turning the tables on his would-be master.
In "The Aliens Nobody Saw!", Harry Simpson finds himself utterly alone in a city where everyone else is blind to a group of aliens secretly constructing a weapon in plain sight. With no proof but his own eyes, he must convince others he’s not imagining things before it’s too late.
