'Clues hidden within the Dead Sea Scrolls determine that Wilson Dowling is sent from the future, to the present day, to restore the Schumann Frequency; a phenomenon that has the power to slow the speed of time. He must open three energy portals hidden within three of the most famous archaeological sites on Earth. Upon his arrival, a young woman becomes psychically linked to him and she herself begins a quest to find this mysterious stranger and in some way pacify demons that have haunted her for more than ten years. All the while, Wilson must move quickly as forces of opposition mount against him, forces that threaten to unravel his mission and condemn us all.'

The most powerful man in South America - Bishop Francisco - has succumbed to its torment. A man has been crucified. Innocents are being murdered. The Peruvian army has been mobilised. Everyone is afraid.
Only one man is immune to its spreading evil: Wilson Downling, the Overseer, a man transported from the future who must carry out a series of vital missions encoded in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
His latest assignment had seemed simple enough: assist the hapless American explorer Hiram Bingham to discover the lost Inca city of Machu Picchu. But history is wildly off course and everything is different now.
The fate of the world is at stake ...' (Publisher's website)
