James Hartridge leads a first world life; the money, the education and an ill-fated vanity complex. On a sixth form trip to an international physics institute, however, Hartridge soon finds himself both out of his depth and out of his own time after an unfortunate series of events revolving around sinister circumstances. Finding himself in a world that is seemingly trapped in some deranged echo of the past, Hartridge must use all his present-day wits and skills to survive in a world that wants him dead. All the while, he must do his best to awaken himself from this apparent coma; before that option is taken out of his hands for good...
