Professor Everett Frankwyler spent his career chasing a theory no one else believed: that time is not a fixed line but something reactive, unpredictable, almost alive. When the device he built finally worked, it hurled him into history alongside the others—and gave him the one thing no theory ever could. Proof.
He is brilliant, obsessive, and constitutionally incapable of leaving a problem alone. Sleep, safety, and ordinary conversation all rank somewhere below the machine.
