One of the youngest scientists of his team, Silas River, and his partner have been planning to create a time machine. After many failed attempts, it works. The equation, 24 10 15 16 3 7, follows him throughout every timeline. Silas jumps throughout the time continuum never being able to stop or continue. He has absolutely no control over these "jumps". In these timelines, he can be stuck for minutes, hours, days, even years. He's met with great challenges, many hardships as well as friendships. He meets friends who others would consider for life, for him not so much. He meets lovers, people who seem like soulmates. All of it being ripped away when he needs it most. Will he ever be able to go back to his original time or is this the end?
