Literary agent Joe Allston is now retired and just killing time until time gets around to killing him. His parents and his only son are long dead, leaving him with neither ancestors nor descendants, tradition nor ties. His job, trafficking the talent of others, had not been his choice. He passes through life as a spectator.
