To the skepticism of his scientific peers, Laurenz Kapro and his colleagues attempt to prove the existence of alternate universes. Their sole source of support, the United Mystics Coalition, added to the skepticism from his scientific colleagues to his bizarre, quasi-scientific quest. When by accident he made contact with agents of another world, with their knowledge and cooperation he and others made the transition to it in the only way possible, in the form of fully functional holographs of their original selves. Many aspects of the newly discovered world seemed the same, but in order to secure the important scientific breakthrough of contact, they were forced to deal with new and ominous threats.
