Nine years after a gruesome mass murder, the case is reopened in the face of a copycat. As you might expect, Detective Thomas Lockhart poo-poos the notion that time travel is the only explanation for the set of present-day keys that were in the sealed evidence box of the nine-year-old case.
—Michael Main
Last year? How in the hell did she have these keys in 1988?
