Harry Bonneville is a private detective who suffers from recurring dreams. He has no idea that he is being summoned by the ancient goddess Astarte, imprisoned 2000 years in the past. When he's drawn into the plans of the mysterious, ultra-secretive Foundation, they project him, together with his friend the infrasound-mapping pioneer, Professor Rowan Forrest and the brilliant Dr Rosa Almeida, back in time to rescue a missing American Agent and a fragment of something called the Time Faeder. They struggle to survive and achieve their goals in the midst of a landscape that is beginning to witness the terrifying return of forgotten gods and their followers. Blending time travel fantasy with humour, but still delivering a punch, there are colourful characters to meet - some human - and others unforgettably supernatural.
