In this novel, the Morgans, distant relatives brought together by circumstance and destiny, must fight the sinister Max Hauptman, his son, Carlo, and various henchmen, to prevent history from being altered, thus ensuring that the present stays free of oppression and destruction. Each member of the Morgan family consumes a specialized herb concoction, left behind by a long-dead relative, Jeremy Morgan, and finds their consciousness transported back in time into the body of a previous incarnation of themselves. Over the course of several incarnations and time periods, the Morgans fight, together and individually, to thwart the dastardly attempts of various incarnations of Max Hauptman to destroy the future. As they struggle to find their purpose and work in their respective timelines to stop the evil forces from succeeding, each Morgan learns a valuable lesson about the mistakes of their past selves and how to make their futures lives more meaningful and fulfilling.
