{4.5\/5} “I have just activated the Vault’s time lock protocol. This is a time dilation field designed to slow time within the facility at a geometrically progressing rate… That means that, from our perspective, those Starfleet reinforcements are coming faster by the moment.”<\/p>\n

Star Trek: Department of Temporal Investigations — Time Lock<\/strong> by Christopher L. Bennett, published in 2016<\/p>\n

Lucsly is at the Vault on Eris when something goes wrong with the DTI’s latest acquisition. They thought it was a time portal but it was merely a dimensional pocket — out of which Vomnin soldiers poured with no good intentions. It’s too bad his former partner Dulmur wasn’t here — he’d transferred to the DTI’s new branch on Denobula. But Dulmur has found out about the crisis, and uses his time to find out everything he can about the raiders.<\/p>\n

This story is only available as an ebook.<\/p>\n

If you liked the other DTI<\/strong> stories you’ll like this one. It has a certain cleverness, and you’ll care about the characters of Lucsly and Dulmur.<\/p>\n
