The year is 1995 and Britain like the rest of Europe has been under German occupation for approaching 50 years. Since that fateful day back in 1945, when the Luftwaffe dropped the world's first atomic bomb on the island of Cyprus, the Nazi's have reigned supreme throughout Europe.
Adolf Hitler had finally realised his dream of a mighty German empire, but unaware of events elsewhere, he had taken his own life in a bunker near Berlin. So despite the Third Reich's glorious victory, the loss of their beloved leader was a cross that the whole of Germany would have to bear for all eternity!
Adolf Hitler had finally realised his dream of a mighty German empire, but unaware of events elsewhere, he had taken his own life in a bunker near Berlin. So despite the Third Reich's glorious victory, the loss of their beloved leader was a cross that the whole of Germany would have to bear for all eternity!
Or was it?
Thanks to the brilliant mind of Tony Smith, an English quantum physicist, they have suddenly found themselves presented with the holy grail of all inventions; A 'Temporal Energy Separation System'. In other words, a time-machine!
Surely, a dream come true for the German command. They now have opportunity to save the Fuhrer from his own suicide and deliver him to the people on the 50th anniversary of their triumph.
Using his own machine, Tony Smith was to be sent back in time to 1945. His mission; to inform Adolf Hitler of his pending victory and therefore prevent his untimely death.
A simple enough plan, but a plan that was to ultimately fail!
Instead, events don't quite transpire as they had hoped and Tony now finds himself in the hands of the brutal and merciless Nazi's. About to be shot for being a spy, Tony is rescued by the Polish resistance, including the beautiful Kaska. Seeing the war from a different perspective, and witnessing first hand the atrocities carried out by the Germans, Tony realises that, instead of saving Hitler, he has the power to change the outcome of the war!
Will he seize the chance?
Aware that something back in 1945 was amiss, could the powers that be, back in 1995, prevent him from doing so, knowing that such a paradox could threaten their very existence. A tense and exciting race across Europe and against time ensues.
If Tony succeeds, what would be the consequences to him and his family?
In fact, what would be the consequences to the entire World!?
Will he face these consequences and change the course of history or will he be stopped in his tracks? Wherever and whenever, Tony Smith finds himself, will he be happy or will he live to regret the day he ever invented the time-machine?
