First, he lost a pair of Oakley sunglasses. Second, he saved the life of President Ulysses S. Grant. It's the near future, and the technology exists to open doorways into the past--but not our past, not exactly. Each "past" is effectively an alternate world, identical to ours but only up to the date on which we access it. And a given "past" can only be reached once. After a passageway is open, it's the only road to that particular past; once closed, it can't be reopened. A passageway has been opened to a version of late 19th-century Ohio. It's been in operation for most of a decade, but it's no secret, on either side of time. A small city has grown up around it to entertain visitors from our time, and many locals earn a good living catering to them. But like all such operations, it has a shelf life; as the "natives" become more sophisticated, their version of the "past" grows less attractive as a destination. Jesse Cullum is a native. And he knows the passageway will be closing soon. He's fallen in love with a woman from our time, and he means to follow her back--no matter whose secrets he has to expose in order to do it"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Time travel $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Space and time $v Fiction. 941 $a 13 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010015455.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909042446.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804022827.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722054439.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20200806021147.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204084457.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110070400.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717033013.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720045439.0 952 $l FJPC224 $d 20170524010304.0 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20170323011159.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20170303010741.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20161208010538.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2E3FCC20BD1411E68AD1C495DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
