Synopsis
Simon Lemuel was on his way to becoming a world dictator. The only way to stop him seemed to be to go back and ensure that he never started. This is the story of Clifford Marriott, who bridged the decades and struggled to prevent Lemuel's rise to power. In the course of his endeavours he met Naomi, and before the struggle was over, they had made one of the most amazing journeys ever undertaken — a journey not through space but through time.
