She is the daughter of a Samurai, swept forward 300 years by an unexplained wormhole. He is a maverick scientist, determined to solve the riddle of her journey through time. Together they must prevent a catastrophe that threatens to destroy everything that ever was or ever will be. When Tokyo-based physicist Peter Walker discovers Nene, trapped in a deep, dark mountain cave, weakened from thirst and hunger and telling tales of "the tunnel of light" that brought her from Edo City, he quickly realizes that something, somewhere - and somewhen - has gone disastrously wrong. Focused on unravelling the mystery surrounding her arrival in the modern era, Peter nevertheless finds himself entranced by Nene's beauty and struggles to maintain his objectivity - until an unstable wormhole interrupts their short time together. Realizing that only he can prevent the annihilation of everything that ever was or will be, Peter chases through past, present and future to once again rescue Nene and destroy the out-of-control wormhole generator before all is lost. But can he do that without losing her forever? Causality Paradox: When the future becomes the past, the past becomes the future, and the present does not exist. Creation and Controllability of Stable Einstein-Rosen Bridges. Peter Walker, Tokyo, October 2019
