Dani was an apparently typical twenty-something barista and amateur movie critic when she befriended Toru, a man claiming to be from the future.

Toru said he was skipping through time, to find writers like George Orwell, whose fictional worlds were transforming the Earths found in thirteen parallel universes into actual dystopias.

Now with the help of a military code breaker, Dani is trying to stop a sociopath who is also aware of this power to design and reign supreme over multiple versions of our world.
