Charlie was a ghost hunter who didn't' really believe in ghosts, but he believed in the effect being a ghost hunter had on girls. He thought he had perfected the ultimate pick up line, "I'm a ghost hunter." All that came crashing down when he met his soul mate...a ghost. One night while photographing an old Victorian mansion, he was startled to meet the ghost of Anne Meux. She died in 1970 at age 85. She was now only 25 and beautiful. Charlie was soon engulfed in a riveting conversation. Who was she? Where was she? What was she doing in her old room? At the end of a long conversation she suddenly had to go. He had a question for himself. Why was he madly in love with an apparition or worse a hallucination? If she was in a parallel universe could he bring her back to this universe? He had an overwhelming desire to get some questions answered. He needed his best friend Stanley, the smartest guy he knew. Stanley was working on his PHD in Physics so surely he could figure this out. Stanley was intrigued and agreed to help his best friend. As a physicist, Stanley was well aware of parallel universes and the duality of the universe. There is always two of anything that can exist. Stanley was convinced that science and religion were two sides of the same coin. The dogma in both seemed to prevent the ultimate discovery of 'truth'. He enjoyed asking the curious. "Since 'space' was created by the Big Bang...what did it go bang in? And, If God created it all by saying 'Let there be light, ' who was he talking to? Then the ultimate question, what was there just before the bang or God's command?The same answer."
