Overview: From the New York Times bestselling author of the Atlantis, Area 51, Green Beret and Nightstalker series comes a thrilling ride through history that has been called "Quantum Leap on steroids!" What does it take to change history and destroy our reality? Change events on the same date, 22 September, in six different years. The Time Patrol must send an agent back to each day, with just 24 hours for each to defeat the Shadow’s plan to disrupt our time-line, creating a time tsunami and wiping our present out.Fall Equinox comes on 22 September. The time when day and night are in balance.
There once was a place on our planet called Atlantis. Ten thousand years ago it was attacked by a force known only as the Shadow, on the same date, over the course of six years. The seventh attack obliterated Atlantis to the point where it is just a legend, but our ancestors managed to survive. The Time Patrol now knows there are many Earth timelines, which all originated from a single timeline initiated by Atlantis because of some event prior to that destruction which the Time Patrol still doesn’t know. The Shadow comes from one of those timelines where Atlantis still exists. It is attacking our timeline by punching bubbles into our past that last no more than twenty-four hours. In each bubble, the Shadow is trying to change our history and cause a time ripple. By itself, a single time ripple can be dealt with and absorbed in the overall stream of history. A significant time ripple that is unchecked can become a Cascade. That changes history, but the timeline still survives. However, six Cascades can combine to become a seventh, cataclysmic event: a Time Tsunami. That would be the end of our timeline and our existence. To achieve its goal, the Shadow attacks six points in time simultaneously, on the same date in different years. The Time Patrol sends an agent back to each bubble in those six years to keep history the same. Despute losses, so far, they have succeeded. This is one of those dates: 22 September. The Autumn Equinox falls between 21 and 24 September; but most often on 22 September. The Equinox is when the Sun is exactly above the Equator and day and night are of equal length.
