Summary: When a renowned topologist claims to have discovered a surface with no sides, his demonstration at a mathematicians’ banquet spirals into chaos—ending with a man vanishing into another dimension. As reality twists like a Moebius strip, only topology can explain the impossible transformations unfolding in a Chicago nightclub.

Story Tag Line: Coming soon.
