After another close call, Eli Sands, aka Danger Boy, is back in San Francisco in 2020. The bad news is that he and his friends, Clyne and Thea, are being held captive by the government agency DARPA.

But Eli and crew discover a city in ruins from a Babylonian invasion and an angry mob ready to stone them. Will Danger Boy and company ever find their way home again?
