| Public details: Jason Dessen is a college physics professor who lives in Chicago with his wife, Daniela and their son Charlie. One day he is kidnapped and stumbles out of a metal cube. He discovers that he is in an alternate Chicago where, fifteen years previously, he had decided not to marry Daniela and had pursued his career as a physicist instead. In this world he built the cube that enables the occupants to move between the countless worlds created from every possible outcome of every event. Jason is held and questioned by scientists. They believe he is the Jason from this world, referred to as Jason2, and is the first person to successfully return from a journey in the cube. Determined to return to his own Chicago and his wife and son, Jason escapes and enters the cube. Unfamiliar with its operation, he finds himself transported to a number of parallel worlds. Eventually, Jason reaches his own world, where he finds Jason2 living with his wife and son. |
