About this item
THE END OF THE UNIVERSE IS ONLY A HOP, SKIP, AND SLIGHT STUMBLE-THROUGH-A-WORMHOLE AWAY Harry Priest just wants to make sure his ex-wife doesn't take away his visitation rights, and his dead-end job cleaning up crime scenes for the past ten years isn't doing him any favors. But when Harry attends what he thinks is a routine death, he stumbles onto a secret multiverse of alternate realities all reachable through universe-hopping gates. Policing these worlds is Havelock Graves, the Interstitial Crime Department's top agent for ten years running (according to him) . When Harry accidentally messes with the ICD crime scene, Graves and his team are demoted as low as they can go: Department Zero. They're recruiting Harry too - not because he charmed them, but because he just might hold the key to saving the universe .
