Synopsis[]
The Time Agents are on the run. They were once a heroic team the Government would call upon to protect the Earth from the alien menace. Except there is no Government any more. And there is no Time Agency either. They're both being controlled and manipulated by a shadow corporation, the Vision-X Industries, and their megalomaniacal leader known only as the Executive. He controls the United Kingdom. Now he wants the world. Then the universe.
Dr Robin Turner is hiding and protected, or so he thinks. Agent Mortis is refined to the shadows. And Agent Liam is the primary target. He's fighting an enemy from his dark and unforgotten past that has already shaped our unescapable destiny of doom. A conspiracy. A revolution. And he must call upon old friends and make new allies in a war that takes us to his home time period of the 37th Century right through to the ancient ruins of Egypt in the 1920s to now. For the clock is ticking down. Ticking down to Judgement Day. And that's when everything changes...
