HOW IT ALL COULD BE contains is a collection of three short stories. In "1974," Judith is confronted by her brother, Dennis, about a decision that led her to a hotel outside Denver. One that the family fundamentally disagrees with. "God's Tapestry" follows Flint as he journeys back into space to discover new phenomena and prove his father wrong. Finally, "Trespass" looks at an officer rethinking his approach when a routine call reveals new, uncomfortable information.
