Publisher's Synopsis
English scientist, Damon Carter-Brown has developed a time travel machine for an American research foundation. While away in Washington discussing funding, his wife is raped and murdered by an escaped research scientist, Tibor Varkas, who is serving time for fraud against the Foundation.When he discovers that Damon has made the breakthrough, Varkas decides to project himself forward in time, though the machine is untried. Damon and his brother-in-law, Quintino Orion, decide to follow on what is sure to be a one-way trip as the research is not sufficiently advanced to allow for their return.The time travellers emerge into a post apocalyptic future peopled by vicious Sunsail Pirates, Rastafarian Bob Marley worshippers, Chief Electricians and mutants. They also fall prey to subtle but snowballing changes in character brought about by the transference. Law abiding Damon becomes increasingly consumed with a passion for bloody revenge; Happy go lucky, failed rock band musician, Quintino, becomes hell bent on founding a music empire; while Varkas, stunned to find that he will not be feted as the world's first time traveller, sets out on a lonely journey of discovery that will eventually lead him to God; and ultimately, to absolution.
