Not, Mirror Mirror, because that episode had nothing to do with time travel.  It was a transporter malfunction that sent Kirk and company into an alternate universe, and their counterparts into the normal universe, personality wise, each character was totally opposite.  Only constant was Spock in both universes, he didn't go through the transporter, he figured out something was very wrong, and he had integrity in both universes.  Our Kirk in the alternate universe suggests that after things get set straight again, that Spock needed to kill his Kirk.. 

Another good time travel episode was  Yesterday's Enterprise, from Star Trek Next Gen.  The tear in the universe is created and Picard and company investigate, in the process they see the Enterprise from twenty years or so before come through, and everything changes, the Federation is at war with the Kingons and they are losing.  Also showing up as head of security is Tasha Yar, who is supposed to be dead..  Apparently there was a battle that the Enterprise was supposed to be blown up in, didn't it got sent through the tear and as a result, all of history was changed.  So they figure it out, Tasha Yar realizes she is supposed to be dead, asks for and is granted a transfer to the old Enterprise, they go back through the tear, are successful and everything is restored.. One of my all time favorite episodes on a number of levels from music to acting and story...

Then instead of leaving well enough alone, they just had to screw it up....  Tasha Yar survived and married a Romulan and they had a baby girl, Denise Crosby.... >:(

Yeah, I'd expect Mirror Mirror to be roughly a year after BG as usual, after "Christmas Eve".

PT/BG were originally planned to be one book, so that's why they're happening in the same timeframe.

While Changes/GS/CD had an unusual timeline, I'd expect the roughly one year per book timeline to be consistent going forwards.

Conspiracy Theorist:
I would guess the following Halloween, 15 months after BG. The wall between the world and the Never Never thin, you can kill immortals, so why not the walls between worlds also thin?

Having it on Halloween would also mean time pressure, a big component of the book, Harry would have to figure out his return before Halloween ends.

Hi, i dont do much posting here and im not sure if this will show on the thread i want it to but if the hounds are attracted by time travel, doesn't Chandler specialize in time magic? And he was in Chicago the next night, mabey he sent them back 1 night to attack harry not knowing eb would be there.
If chandler specializes in time magic (a point made in text in PT) then maybe corner hounds are the easiest outsider for him too summon?

Good point. He came up in another thread about Peabody's partner on Demonreach in Turn Coat.
