Synopsis: From the back cover of the Popular Library first edition: "Trapped in time - Doc was a college professor, and much too savy to buy into the ghost tales that were making the rounds. But that was before he dived into the dark waters of an Idaho lake in search of a buried boom town... before he heard piano music wafting, inexplicably, across the forest twilight... or saw the phantom woman who haunted the lake, waiting for... what? Pursuing that mystery will draw Doc into the past and onto the icy decks of the R.M.S Titanic. Mired in a time warp, he must fight for the future by racing against a gang of mutant time bandits - and the ticking of the clock."
