Bob Whelan and Pete Wong are independent interstellar truckers caught in the middle when their freighter, the Betsy Ross, is commandeered to transfer a small, mysterious object and then hijacked by masked terrorists led by a small, mysterious woman who seems eerily familiar to Bob.

With the help of a new friend (or maybe not), they find themselves caught between those who have developed a bomb based on the principles of imaginary physics — and those who want to stop them. Now they must choose sides and figure out a way to avoid getting caught when the imaginary bomb ignites — if they can manage to stay alive until then.
