The world government, a fascist corporatocracy, has ruled with an iron fist, but it's losing its grip. Chaos is spreading, threatening the borders. The time is short.β΅β΅Experimental physicists at the Institute de Physica in Southern California stumble upon time travel to a distant, unspoiled past, and soon the regime is interested. Maybe this will be the out they've been hoping for. For themselves and their friends, that is. First, though, they decide to send scouts back to investigate. β΅β΅Two people are chosen: Julie Pine, Paleontologist and Under-Curator at the Los Angeles County Natural History Museum, and Dietrich Jaqzen, professional survivalist, government hit-man and big game hunter. While Julie gathers information, Jaqzen's job is to keep her safe for the 30 days the mission is to last. There is a problem, though....
