Synopsis
When a quantum experiment accidentally opens a portal between parallel Earths, Neanderthal physicist Ponter Boddit is transported to our world — one where Homo sapiens, not Neanderthals, became the dominant species. As scientists from both worlds scramble to understand the crossing, startling differences between the two civilizations are revealed.
