Synopsis

What would happen if the "Me Generation" could be transported back to live among the souls of "The Greatest Generation"? Nathaniel Allen and Daniel O'Shea, publicly serving as front men for a world Christian relief organization, are siphoning off food and medicine into the hands of corrupt foreign officials in exchange for "blood emeralds". On a break in London, they opt for a midnight trip in a pre-WWII subway train to visit old Underground sites...but their evening jaunt turns into the ultimate "tourist trap". A train wreck leaves Nate and Dan the sole survivors - and somehow transported back to 1940 London at the dawn of the Nazi Blitz. That is where their perilous adventure in time begins as their search for a way home leads them to love they dare not return, into a plot to drive England into financial ruin and, perhaps, to a chance to redeem themselves in the past for their future. Or is it their present? The action and intrigue do not stop until they - and you - learn the answer in "Time Step".
