Synopsis
A professor returns from an interstellar research trip to find that a duplicate of himself has already come back and been killed. At a university where goblins, trolls, and other supernatural creatures live on a reservation alongside time-displaced Neanderthals, he must solve the mystery of his own murder while protecting a priceless alien artifact.
