Maxwell Frei claims to be a photographer to qualify for cheap office space in an art collective known as The Warehouse. In fact he's a counsellor, and though his degree is not in psychology he has studied the subject and knows the score. Anti-depressants don't work and he has the evidence to prove it. As for the many therapies out there, they aren't worth a row of beans. His attitude is simple: he doesn't listen to the experts, he listens to his clients. And everything goes well till one of them steps in front of a moving car and the police come knocking on his door. Now the focus of a criminal investigation, Max is scrambling to keep his secret hidden from the collective while crafting explanations that will keep his girlfriend happy. Soon, however, the questions start to pile up. It's time to talk, but the more he says the worse it gets.

It isn't planned, nothing he does ever is, but when Frank is burned out of his flat he ends up living where he works. A maintenance man in a large department store, this is easier for him than most, and everything might just have worked out if he'd told other people what he was doing, especially his girlfriend, Pamela. But he doesn't, and his secret life soon becomes a comedy of unintended consequences, the only thing he has in common with the ambitious but hot-tempered Preston Blair. Set in 2004, when analogue is giving way to digital and family-owned stores are losing out to the competition, this is the entertaining follow-up to Hart's previous title, Time to Talk.

To the well-meaning people of Future World the problem is obvious, too many people. And so is the solution - eliminate as many of their fellow human beings as they can. Though for Catherine Cooper, Cindy Horvath and Gina Saito this is easier said than done, till they get their hands on a bird flu virus made lethal in the lab.
