Behind the Sunset Veil tells the story of eight individuals involved in the struggle to bend Space-Time for Man's own purposes: -Mister Sigmund Shuei a 29th Century time-traveler stranded in the savage 21st Century. -Jay Bracken, a time-traveler rapidly losing his mind due to Translocation Psychosis. -Charlie Robinson, a scientist surrounded by adventurers trying not to lose his relevance. -Three-Rivers, having stolen the Whiteman's thunder, has the ability to bend Time, and has decided that it is about SpaceTime to turn the tables on the Whites-as soon as he and his totemic squirrel cop some weed. -Aristotle, father of logic and science. -Arlene Higgins, a time-hunter tasked with bringing Aristotle forward before he is murdered in the wake of Alexander's untimely death in 323 B.C. -Sebastian de Canete, a16th Century Franciscan monk working as Arlene's translator. -Joan Henderson, CIA, investigating a man that appears to be a genetic weapon. Behind the Sunset Veil is at once a rollicking science-fiction adventure and a darkly illuminated fantasy that veers between 17th Century messianic conclaves, and the 21st Century Narcostate, to vivid scenes of ancient Hellenic life.
