Chad Baker is in love with Amy Snider, though he doesn't know it. He thinks they're just friends like the rest of the kids in eighth grade. But as the school year is coming to a close a mysterious boy shows up to complicate this ordinary teenage boy's life. Derrick claims Chad has broken his father's proprietary hand held game player. The price to replace it can't be paid in dollars and cents, but in lives. Chad must travel across dimensions and learn the ways of bending time and space by manipulating sound. The mysteries pile up as he meets the residents of the dimensions and learns the responsibilities inherited from the father who disappeared shortly after Chad's birth. Who will help him rescue his friend, and who can he trust in a world of strangers and strange allegiances? The beautiful Amanda, four years older than Chad and a hundred miles out of his league? The manipulative recluse, Brendan Thrush? Or the dangerous and powerful Commander Lorantelle? What will be the final price Chad must pay to prove his friendship?
