Time travel is impossible – is it not? This is what two Cambridge scientists just starting their romantic involvement argued. However they suddenly find themselves pulled back in time to 1641, the start of the English Civil War. Being in Cambridge they go to see Oliver Cromwell and receive a very charitable reception. Henry finds himself under Cromwell’s spell and joins him. Henry uses his knowledge of the war that he remembered from history books to guide Cromwell and fight by his side.
However, could he or should he change history? Are they just cogs in the circularity of history? What about Jane stuck as a spinster in the Cromwell household? What about their relationship and Henry’s with Cromwell’s daughter. How do twenty-first century people adapt to life in a seventeenth century war – morals and all? When they die in very different times and in very different circumstances they get an even bigger shock.
