Unbound by such restrictions, it can achieve the otherwise impossible, journey wherever a mind can conceive, and bring the one thing that they most desire. But the cost of using the tunnel is staggering: a portion of one's own existence.
Yet… when Kaoru Tono discovers something matching the Tunnel's description, he can't help but think of the sister he lost five years ago. Can the tunnel really reunite them? And how is his school's beautiful new transfer student involved?
The answers await down a path into mystery in THE TUNNEL TO SUMMER, THE EXIT OF GOODBYES.

Suddenly cracks in the barrier have begun to appear, and a woman from outside the dome contacts him. A woman from a past he forgot. The flow of time has been changed, his "when" is not when he thinks it is, and somehow he is at the center of an alien plan to rewrite the flow of reality itself in RAHXEPHON!
