Lately, though, he's been aware that he is being watched by people who know what he is and want what he knows. Covert government operatives have their eyes on Jake, looking to exploit his highly advanced technical prowess.He's let secrets slip before, and witnessed ensuing disaster. Now his greatest concern is keeping dangerous knowledge from being misused. His latest endeavor; Jake needs to build a time machine. But that sort of knowledge, in the hands of the unscrupulous, could be cataclysmic.He shares his unique and often fanciful observations of history and human nature with a few close friends that help him build a living computer, one that is capable of manipulating space/time and providing Jake a way home.
