Cheating the Universe

Two doctors from a psychiatric hospital take on an investigation involving a patient named Ans. He is accused of a brutal murder, but he stubbornly refuses to say anything about himself or the crime. Only vague hints—hints that raise more and more questions. What happened that fateful September night? Is Ans from the future, as he claims? Who is he, anyway? The killer? A psychopath? Just insane—or maybe a victim? Or perhaps the universe itself is running its own game, one known only to itself?
