About No time for Toffee!

"No Time for Toffee!" by Charles F. Myers is a science fiction novel likely written in the early 1950s. The story revolves around Marc Pillsworth, who finds himself facing life-threatening challenges, including being shot amidst a conspiracy involving subversive government propaganda. As he grapples with his precarious existence, the character of Toffee—a seemingly imaginary yet vivid presence—complicates his situation with her spirited and unpredictable nature. The opening of the story introduces a dramatic scene where Marc is about to broadcast concerning a government scheme when he is shot, leading to his apparent death or critical injury.
