About the book
Grad-school dropout Matt Fuller is toiling as a lowly research assistant at MIT when, while measuring quantum relationships between gravity and light, his calibrator disappears and reappears one second later. In fact, every time Matt hits the reset button, the machine goes missing twelve times longer.
