Welcome to Parallel University, where the students are all from parallel universes!

Darius m1119 is an android from a parallel where artificial intelligence has replaced flesh-and-blood humanity. Programmed for honesty and integrity, Darius now experiences fluctuations in his behavior: disturbing bursts of jealousy, anger, and dishonesty. Worried that this might make him a danger to his friends, he goes on a secret quest to see how far his new impulses might take him - and finds himself playing a pivotal role in a palace revolution in a parallel Africa. But what he learns about himself pales against the heinous crime he finds himself accused of in the aftermath - a crime he has no recollection of having committed.

Leaping across alternate realities and hurtling through time, Darius seeks to unravel the mystery of his evolving identity and to solve the unspeakable crime he's been charged with - aided by the unlikeliest colleague imaginable: his alleged victim. In the process he discovers a seemingly all-powerful monster who threatens the entire multiverse ... a monster whose face might be his own.
