Add to basketPaperback. Tom Silvers, scientist and professor, believes he has the formula for time travel and has secured funding from NASA for field tests. He has chosen eight students in the field of science from West Virginia University to intern with him for the summer. They are all geniuses and have excelled in their respective fields. Upon NASA's advice, Prof. Silvers chose Laurel Fork Federal Wilderness in West Virginia's Appalachian Mountains to conduct the experiments. In just a few days, they had a successful combination and obtained time travel. They needed to do several more experiments to determine safety and feasibility of sustained and frequent travel. During the process, they decided it was too big for NASA or any government to get hold of, so they agreed to fake the trials and keep it a secret. While moving back and forth through time to set up what they'd need to continue traveling without government sanctions and/or backing, something went horribly wrong. They encountered an echo effect and the time rift was opening on its own. The deadline was swiftly approaching when NASA would swoop in and remove every piece of equipment. They'd already sent one guy in to "check on things". If NASA found out time travel had been achieved, they would take the technology and use it for whatever the government deemed necessary. Tom's team had to find a way to repair the rift and stop it opening on its own. They had to have total control of it, or they would be found out. The government could not know!
