Towering over Chicago, Matterlys is the biggest department store in the world. No one knows that its "Anything You Want" success is due to a navigable wormhole. After all, such things are thought impossible, or at least improbable to be found among the linen and lingerie.
Bailey Newton is a nineteen-year-old computer programmer and worrywart extraordinaire. She is about to find that getting stuck in the store after hours can lead to more bargains than she ever wanted. Now that one of the store’s founders has gone rogue against the other, the fate of the store, the city and the world lies in her nail-bitten hands.
Bailey recruits a sexy, whip-wielding female anthropology professor and a swarthy, wisecrack-popping male store manager to help her take on Mr. Matter and Mr. Antimatter in their high-stakes game of domination. Meanwhile time is running out for them all as the forces of quantum physics tear apart the store molecule from molecule.
