A brief excerpt

PILGRIM
by Fred Saberhagen

"YOUR ONLY CHANCE LIES IN PREVENTING THE ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN . . ."

"What?"

A burst of audio and visual static reduced reception to unintelligible noise. Then the paradox-generated interference was gone again, as suddenly as it had come.

" . . . Fourteenth of April at Ford's Theater --" blast, crackle.

". . . you must be within two meters of the President . . . just before the bullet smashes into Lincoln's brain. Your total window of opportunity will be three seconds."

 

MORE TO BE POSTED LATER.
