The Year Dot

The Government decided that Christopher Jay was an enemy of the people. In fact, he was an enemy of the Government, and that meant he had to die.So Jay became a casualty of the New Capital Punishment Act, and was duly executed on a series of trumped-up charges of treason.But this was also the age of the Blind Scientist, the Transplanter, the Organ Switchers and the breeders of babies in bottles. And once Jay's organs had been harvested, they found some very interesting places to resume life.They also enabled Jay to fulfil his final wish—that if he was to die, then the entire planet was going to die with him.This was the time of reckoning.This was the Year Dot.
