And now for something completely different. Once upon a time, Bob Fischer was a professional hit man, a torturer and psychotic, emotionless murderer. He was also a parent any child would love to have and a genius inventor, making multi-millions on his patents and who just happened to live in Paradise. Note that Garrigeld Island, Bender Bay and Bungun don't exist. Don't you just wish they did? And all this is written archetypally in Australian.
Like all my stories, this has religious overtones. If you don't like that, don't read it! It's a romance with a science fiction twist thrown in. Some different directions for them from other scifi treatments. Happy endings are nice things.

I hadn't originally planned on writing a sequel to "A Very Lucky Man," but I got so many nice emails requesting one that I couldn't resist. This story picks up a year after the first. Our hero arrives home from work early to find his lovely young daughter engaging in naughty experimentation with a boy from down the street and is inspired thereby.
Driving home from a funeral, Hal stops to get gas, sees his muffler needs attention, decides to give blood while waiting for the repairs, and meets a shy, lovely girl perhaps half his age who is making her first blood donation.
