Synopsis
Denver detective Win Bear, on the trail of a murderer, discovers much more than a killer. He accidentally stumbles upon the probability broach, a portal to a myriad of worlds--some wildly different from, others disconcertingly similar to our own. Win finds himself transported to an alternate Earth where Congress is in Colorado, everyone carries a gun, there are gorillas in the Senate, and public services are controlled by private businesses.

From the Inside Flap
For police detective Lt. Edward "Win" Bear, the adventure began with the murder of a University physicist. It got more interesting when his best friend was murdered, by parties also intent on killing Win.But it got downright strange when the detective found himself in an altogether different world, one full of technological marvels, almost no poverty, or government to speak of, and everyone carries guns! Win hardly has time to adjust to his new surroundings when he learns that the people who have been trying to kill him are here, too. And they have their own plans for this place.
