The brutal murder of sixteen-year-old Kelly Braden sends shock waves through a community--and an intellectually disabled man to jail. The only witness to Kelly's murder is the five-year-old cousin she was babysitting. The young girl names their neighbor, Jack Osgood, as the bat-wielding criminal. Two decades later, Osgood faces execution. Defense Attorney Dani Trumball and her partner, investigator Tommy Noorland, are summoned to the Georgia prison where Osgood is on death row. With no friends or family of his own, there is no one left to believe Jack didn't kill Kelly but Dani and her Help Innocent Prisoners Project. With a mentally disabled son of her own, defending Osgood could be her most heartrending case yet. While fighting a system that blocks her attempts to overturn his conviction, Dani must race to identify the real killer before Osgood's time runs out--and the murderer strikes again.

Jedna z klasických antologií Isaaca Asimova obsahuje především humoristické povídky, které svým poselstvím nijak nezestárly. Navíc se dá říct, že tyto historky o dodnes neutuchajících lidských snahách využít a zneužít počítače k vlastním záměrům získaly časem vysloveně roztomilou patinu. Vydejte se s námi do divukrásné země děrných štítků a šprýmujících obřích počítačů…

Antologii sestavil Martin Harry Greenberg. Dielo Isaaca Asimova, které po desetiletí formovalo představivost čtenářů, inspirovalo sedmnáct významných autorů k vytvoření nových povídek zasazených do jeho slavného science fiction vesmíru. Orson Scott Card v povídce Badatel osvětluje vznik Druhé Nadace a cesty lidského srdce v budoucnosti. George Alec Effinger v Maureen Birnbaumové po setmění převypráví klasickou Asimovovu Příchod noci z jiného úhlu, což přináší komické důsledky. Mistři jako Poul Anderson, Hal Clement a Harry Harrison se zaměřují na Asimovovy tři zákony robotiky, zatímco Edward Wellen a Edward D. Hoch pokračují v dobrodružstvích Černých vdovců a Wendella Urtha. Dalšími přispěvateli jsou renomovaní autoři jako Robert Silverberg, Frederik Pohl, Harry Turtledove, Mike Resnick a Connie Willisová. Asimovova vize galaktické budoucnosti fascinovala miliony čtenářů po celém světě, od příběhů z blízké budoucnosti po ságu o Galaktické Říši a Nadaci. Tato antologie nabízí pohled na jeho dílo skrze perspektivu různých autorů a obsahuje také poděkování a vzpomínky přátel, rodiny a kolegů na Asimovův život a dílo.
