Synopsis
In 2005, U.C. Irvine physics prof Alicia Butterworth is attending a Long Island conference on particle collision when an experiment explodes. Alicia locates a large ball-shaped object amid the wreckage, which she promptly brings back to California for further study. Alicia discovers, with the help of her assistants, that the ball is a wormhole to the rapidly developing alternate universe she unwittingly created.

Publisher's Note
After an accident in a brilliant young physicist's most ambitious experiment, it appears: a wondrous sphere the size of a basketball, made of nothing known to science. Before long, it will be clear that this object has opened a vista on an entirely different universe, a newborn cosmos whose existence will rock this world and test one woman to the limit: the physicist who has ignited this thrilling adventure.
On an otherwise ordinary day not long from now, inside a massive installation of ultra-high-energy scientific equipment, something goes wrong with a brilliant young physicist's most ambitious experiment. But this is not a calamity. It will soon be seen as one of the most significant breakthroughs in history. For the explosion has left something behind: a wondrous sphere the size of a basketball, made of nothing known to science. Before long, it will be clear that this object has opened a vista on an entirely different universe - a newborn cosmos whose existence will rock this world and test one woman to the limit as she comes face-to-face with fame and terror. That woman is the physicist who has ignited this thrilling adventure.

Industry reviews
"Dead accurate, of course, on science, scientists, blackness and science, and the public and media reaction to scientific discoveries. But Benford makes little attempt to grapple with the philosophical issues raised, and his leading lady could use a personality transplant."
Kirkus Reviews  (12/01/1997)
