Book excerpt: Brad Hastings, a former rodeo cowboy, is on leave from his job as deputy sheriff in Los Gatos, New Mexico. He is travelling with his father, Doug, in an attempt to convince him to quit rodeoing and return to their ranch in New Mexico. Two inept wannabe gangsters, the Stokes brothers, have been stalking them because of their mistaken belief that the Hastings have in their possession some stolen bonds the Stokes want to recover. To add to their anxiety, they also believe Brad has seen them commit a murder. The Stokes’ intelligence level and ability to follow through on any of their plots, such as killing both of the Hastings, is about two notches below that of Westlakes’ Dortmunder, and they are so inept that the Hastings are unaware of their schemes until Doug is actually kidnapped.

Download or read book If at First Short Story written by Peter F. Hamilton and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2011-06-20 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter F. Hamilton has proven himself a modern master of epic space opera, carrying the tradition of far-future empire building begun by Heinlein and Asimov into the new millennium. But Hamilton is also a master of the short story, and when he tackles one of science fiction’s most enduring themes—time travel—the result is as provocative as it is entertaining. It starts in 2007 with a break-in. The victim: Marcus Orthew, the financial and technological genius behind Orthanics, the computer company whose radical products have delivered a one-two punch to the industry, all but knocking PCs and Macs out of the ring. The perpetrator: a man obsessed with Orthew. Just another simple case of celebrity stalking—or so everyone assumes at first, including Metropolitan Police Chief Detective David Lanson. But when Lanson interviews the suspect, he makes a startling claim: Orthew is from the future. Or, rather, a future—a parallel timeline. Thus begins the ride of a lifetime for Lanson, as his pursuit of the facts tumbles him headlong down a rabbit hole—and the hunter finds himself hunted.
