A technician on a zero-g space station discovers there is more to him than meets the eye. Time cops must unwind crimes that might not have been committed yet. A brilliant young psychiatrist tests his theories on an unearthly patient by a moonlit pond. For a young girl, Anne Bolyn's poppet is the stuff of nightmares only she can banish.
