Welcome to Litsy!

In a world where risk has been eliminated Abraham Pope shines. He has a safe house, in a safe street, and he has a safe job, in a safe building. In fact, he’s so incredibly safe, all he has to concentrate on is being safer. In a world where risk has been eliminated Unexpected things shouldn’t happen. This world is not ready for unexpected things. Unexpected things would mess all the other things up. In a world where risk has been eliminated If an unexpected thing were to happen, like, for instance, a water leak, then that would need un-leaking, and that would require a plumber. In a world where risk has been eliminated You need another world close by. One that would have plumbers, glaziers, pumpers and writers. Those that would be able to deal with the unexpected. In a world where risk has been eliminated Things are about to get interesting. Only one man can fix that leak, and he lives outside that world. When he comes, mayhem will follow. When he comes, that risk free world will know his name. And they will call him Phil Lud “Not many books get me laughing out loud and reading snippets to my poor husband, but this one fit the bill.” Chris B Amazon.com Phil Lud is just a card game away from destitution when he gets a call; on the other end of the line Abraham Pope is panicking. Pope is a ‘Safer’ and lives in a vast dome where Health and Safety rules. Everything under the dome is researched; risk assessed, regulated and runs smoothly, until a leak. Arriving at work one day, Pope is aghast to see a drip coming from the building’s foyer ceiling. He springs into action, cordons off the area and is soon charged with the enormous task of getting it fixed. With no need for plumbers inside the dome, Pope is forced to turn to the outside where Phil Lud lives. Can Lud fix the leak without breaching one of the million or so safety directives? Will Pope see the dome for what it is?
