Charles Fairbanks was once one of the world's greatest spies, but that was a long time ago. Now he lives alone in a too-spacious penthouse apartment overlooking Hyde Park, with only his carer Agnes for all-too-occasional company. Just as Charles begins to succumb to boredom and despair, a story crops up on the news that relates to his last ever field mission. He contacts MI6, but his concerns are thoroughly dismissed. Rightly or wrongly, he is determined to find the answer, even if it means his own death. En route to California he falls asleep, reliving the vivid details of the mission that changed his life forever. Additional Short Stories: Twenty-Thirteen Four friends meet up for a drink in their old hometown when the ground suddenly begins to shake... Moonfall Darlene and Dylan go picking moonberries one night, noticing that the moon is unusually large and bright... and seems to be getting closer. Unfulfilled Mike has aspirations of being a rock 'n' roll star... but is it just a pipe dream? The Big City John feels elated at getting a new job, only to realise it may not be what he was looking for. Intervention Bernard has a very special watch that allows him to travel back to a specific time, but he can only visit a specific period once. Using his powers for good, he attempts to stop a troubled youth from committing a truly heinous crime. Just Press Reset Valdus really, really hates his supervisor. Some days he just wishes he could kill him. Luckily, a handy reset button allows him to get away with whatever he wants. The Pumpking Clay is driving through the countryside when a tree falls in his path, forcing him to leave his car and cross a field bustling with unnaturally large pumpkins... but it's the really big one that scares him. Plus additional bonus content.
