Ella has been in Keystone for a couple of months. This time she tries to solve the murder of a pirate, whose body disappeared shortly after she saw it. Also, she and Will have finished mapping the Keystone boundary, and she is trying to find the cause of the time-and-location jumps. Hint: The boundary seems to be a circle with Twin Hills at the center.
—Tandy Ringoringo
“I only intended to make a small inter-dimensional field, so to speak,” the professor continued. “Just large enough to encompass my house. At first, it worked. The field or bubble drew the enormous energy required to create the bridge from the fifth dimension itself and folded space-time.

“But then something went wrong. Horribly, horribly wrong. The bubble expanded. It kept growing, drawing more and more power from the fifth dimension. I shut off the machine, but it was of no use. The field had become independent of the device.

“Eventually, the bubble stabilized. From what I can tell, we’re stuck in an inter-dimensional, space-time feedback loop.”
