There is one chance to stop the coming crisis, a world war that will lead to the end of civilization and the annihilation of mankind. To bring that message, the son of the future's most powerful man has used an unreliable technology of his own design to come back twenty years to our time and weave the tale of what is to come. The political and social unrest and the widespread corruption have fostered a dangerous rebellion. Its power is growing already, unnoticed in small towns, arming for a war. Time is against us, now and in the messenger's time. For us, it is a danger to our way of life and the comparative peace that we now have. For them, it is a question of the survival of the species. A lone reporter holds the key to stopping the crisis with the power of his voice.
