Summary: Alice walks into a blue box with a stranger and finds a place where she's needed.
Why you should read it: "Living in the past" is something Alice Carter isn't prone to do -- until she loses Steven and finds she hasn't much to live for in the present. Manchester in the 1970s is a different story, however.
flurblewig serves up a concise and clever piece with a hefty serving of "what if".
It sounds wonderful. Insane, obviously, but wonderful. The stranger tells her that he knows her father, but she's sold on the idea now so she decides not to hold that against him.
Alice walks out of the blue box into the year 1973. It wasn't what she'd expected -- to the extent that she'd expected anything -- but it meets the promised criteria so she doesn't complain.
