Interesting Times A team of archaeologists led by three Jesuits and
an Israeli rabbi discover a sealed cave in the Sinai Desert. Hidden
and unopened for millennia, the cave contains pre-Christian-era
treasures, including a stone inscribed with the Prayer of Moses,
offering a unique power to a priest who utters it with a request.
The rabbi finds and conceals the stone, and later recites the
prayer while requesting that modern Israel be transported in time
to 1939 to deal as a nuclear power with the Nazi threat. The
temporal transformation occurs, and the story recounts the impact
on the government and citizens of Israel, the crew of the US Navy
cruiser docked in Haifa at the fateful moment, and many others in
Europe and the Middle East. The effects on people in 1939 who
encounter visitors from the future, with all their technology, are
engrossing, and are reported in a fashion that transports the
reader to the center of events. A unifying theme revolves around
the efforts of the Jesuits and the US naval command staff to find a
way to undo the time-shift. The dramatic events leading to a
startling climax will be etched in the reader's memory.
