What if teleportation was really possible? Englishman Richie Fisher is about to find out ... Richie and his wife Clara have won a weekend in New York in a newspaper competition. While Clara is off blowing their spending money Richie wanders aimlessly chewing on a veggie-burger ending up in a gift-shop where he finds himself standing in front of an instant transporter machine. It looks nothing like the open-plan teleporter on Captain Kirk's Starship Enterprise; in fact it seems more like a glorified microwave oven. Richie places his burger inside hits the return key on the linked-up computer - and the burger disappears. But if he can teleport a half-eaten veggie-burger what else could you do with the machine? For criminals the possibilities are endless. Who could catch you if you beamed drugs into nostrils a hundred miles away? And how much would illegal immigrants pay to be teleported into the rich host country of their choice? Richie buys a teleporter and takes it back to England where the chaos begins ...
