Neanderthal parallax. Hominids

Two unique human species: Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthals. It was the Neanderthals who became the dominant species in a parallel universe. Their civilization is comparable to ours, their science and technology are more advanced, and their culture, society, and philosophy are radically different.
Ponter Boddet, a Neanderthal physicist, accidentally breaches the barrier between worlds and is transported to our universe. Almost immediately, he is recognized as a Neanderthal, and only later as a scientist. He finds himself quarantined, alone and confused, a stranger in a strange land. But Ponter manages to befriend a doctor and a physicist, and especially the Canadian geneticist Mary Vaughan, with whom he develops a special rapport.
Ponter's colleague, Adekor Hald, faces chaos in the lab, the disappearance of a body, suspicion from his fellow humans, and a volatile murder investigation. How can he prove his innocence if he has no idea what really happened to Ponter? Contact between humans and Neanderthals creates a relationship fraught with conflict, philosophical challenges, and threats to the existence of one species or the other—or both. A relationship equally rich in limitless opportunities for collaboration and growth on many levels, from the practical to the aesthetic, from the scientific to the spiritual.
