About this ebook
Rodin has the contract under control, drawing the target in, ready for the removal. Not a simple job, but nothing too complicated.
But nothing happens in isolation, and Rodin has no idea how this contract will impact others — or himself.
Impact is a series of four connected short stories, set in the dark Dystopian world of Dominions.

A Quick Note
Impact started life as four connected short stories on twiain.com, originally appearing under the collective title of What Comes Around. The versions in Impact are altered and expanded (and in one case totally re-written).
