If you could change one event in history to make the world a better
place, what would it be? Sir Isaac Newton has worked out a mathematical
formulae that enables a person standing in a specific spot in Istanbul in 2025,
to be transported on a one way ticket to 1914. What would you change in history
at that time and what butterfly effects would also impact on the unfolding of
the 20th century?
Gus is the man chosen by the Cambridge Dons to achieve this and what he
discovers is that it is a lot harder than it looks. A fascinating story woven
around the events leading up to the First World War and what would happen if
you changed them. Gus is a man whom you really like who is betrayed at every
turn and the twist at the end was completely unexpected. A must for any time
travelling fan!
