One day they are working in a modest office in a place very familiar, the next they are swept into a place that is neither here nor there. (Technically it is here, regardless if it is where or there or whatever.)
With the assistance of a less than willing box, Milly, Detective Emmet T. Head and Doctor Detective Almond E. Joy are fast on the trail presented to them by an unknown force.
Only time will tell if the "heroes," (term used with extreme flexibility) can find a way to get back to reality or remain trapped in a world they are slaves in.
