Review Summaries
"Daniels is a widowed innkeeper with a young daughter in a small town in Ohio. A mysterious group of guests turn up at his inn, and he gradually realizes they are tourists from the future, travelling to various points in time to witness great disasters in their past. Why are they in his town? Can he do anything about it? A decent, but not very memorable sci-fi action thriller."
David Loftus, Resident Scholar
