In the summer of 1882, long-suffering American prospector Robert Sproule, rows his way up Kootenay Lake to a promontory known as Big Ledge. Almost at once, he finds himself encamped on an extremely rich lode of high-grade lead, likely laced with silver. At last, Sproule's fortunes seem ready to change. Riches seem just around the corner. But another adventurer is on Kootenay Lake at the same time: the Englishman, Baillie-Grohman. His plans are even more grandiose than Sproule's.

It is 1613, and William Shakespeare is trying to extinguish a fire at the Globe Theatre. Just as a fiery beam is about to fall on him, he is transported across time and space to Nelson, British Columbia. William quickly accesses his new reality. Slowly, he begins to master 20th-century mannerisms, new speech patterns, and new ways to make a living. He decides his best hope is to become a screenwriter, but first he must deal with his nemesis (and one-time friend), Ben Jonson, who has no taste for the modern world and is convinced he knows a way to return to 17th-century London.

Uluru's aboriginal community have shut down the local airport and National Park, much to the alarm of the authorities in Canberra. James Cook, as the government's representative (himself an aboriginal), is sent to help sort out what he thinks is no more than a labor dispute. While there, he meets Pam, a young anthropologist. She introduces James to a local elder, Billy. The three of them go on walkabout to Kata Djuta and finally back to Uluru, the main purpose of which seems to be to prepare James for an unusual celestial event.

Quite by accident she thinks, Henrietta Draper (Hattie) finds herself standing on the surface of a distant planet orbiting the star HD10307 in the constellation Andromeda. Bad enough . . . but it seems the planet's inhabitants expect her, somehow, to "save the universe."

But when faced with an unexpected family tragedy—for which he feels responsible—Daniel discovers the magical escape that alcohol can provide, numbing his pain and guilt.

Taking a break from his studies, Thomas travels to Greece to more fully understand the origin of Western culture. In Delphi, he meets a young Mexican actress named Lucia who performs for him—in Spanish—a scene from Euripides’s Electra. Lucia’s talents exceed mere acting; sometimes she hears voices, seemingly echoes from the distant past. Thomas enlists the aid of a brilliant high school chum to help unravel the mystery of these “voices”. The three of them continue their travels through Greece, eventually joined by a young Jesuit who turns out to have an agenda of his own.
