Aber geht in SCHEIN etwas schief, schlägt die Stunde der Reparanten! Ausgerechnet Beckers erster Auftrag ist einer der gefährlichsten aller Zeiten: Die Welt steht am Rande eines Zusammenbruchs.

The narrative explores the protagonist's journey of self-discovery following the death of their mother. As they grapple with the pressures of maintaining a job and a home, they realize that their true strength lies not in the pursuit of safety, but in embracing the chaotic and uncertain aspects of life. The story delves into themes of loss, resilience, and the liberation found in letting go of societal expectations, ultimately celebrating the beauty of vulnerability and the freedom that comes from accepting one's true self.

The narrative explores a life lived in the "between" spaces, where conventional milestones hold little significance. The protagonist reflects on their experiences, feeling disconnected from the expected paths of life. Through conversations with friends, they reveal a sense of alienation, as their true stories unfold in the margins rather than in the spotlight. This introspective journey delves into themes of identity, belonging, and the often-overlooked moments that shape a person's existence.

In "Life's a Glitch," 12-year-old Becker Drane discovers that he's the only one capable of fixing the chaos unraveling around him.
