"Compulsive reading . . . brilliantly imagined."--"Los Angeles
Times"
In an Arizona desert, a man wanders in a daze, speaking words that
make no sense. Within twenty-four hours he is dead, his body
swiftly cremated by his only known associates. Halfway around the
world, archaeologists make a shocking discovery at a medieval site.
Suddenly they are swept off to the headquarters of a secretive
multinational corporation that has developed an astounding
technology. Now this group is about to get a chance not to study
the past but to enter it. And with history opened up to the
present, the dead awakened to the living, these men and women will
soon find themselves fighting for their very survival--six hundred
years ago.
