Product Description Paul Harrison always wanted to play Hamlet, but he never expected hed live the role first.In the aftermath of a family tragedy on 21st century Earth, Paul discovers hes the clone of Sean Lyon, his great-great-grandfather and a famous TwenCen musician. Suspecting his mothers death was no accident, Paul comes up with a plan to trick the answers out of the great-uncle who had him cloned. But in order to make his plan work, Paul needs help from Sean himself-and Seans time is running out in the TwenCen universe next door. Although Pauls family lives on the spaceship that travels between the universes, hes never been allowed on TwenCen Earth. Now, with the help of his friends, his disguise-creating holoprojectors, and a quantum quirk, Paul must make his way to Sean while evading other time travelers who fear hell change the history of the TwenCen universe. If Paul is to achieve justice, he must not only risk his own life, but the wormhole connecting the universes. To be or not to be was a simple question in comparison....
