Description

Frank Parker works with a special team of scientists and government officials on project Backstep. Using the Backstep device, Lt. Parker can travel back in time exactly 7 days. Once in the past, he reports in to base using code word "Conundrum" and carries out his mission to alter history for the better. ------- When something utterly catastrophic happens, the NSA turns to Project BACKSTEP to prevent it from happening. Using parts scavenged from the Roswell UFO, they build a time machine capable of sending ex- Navy SEAL and NSA operative Frank Parker a week back in time to alter history for the better. ------- Salvaging the material and technology from the spaceship crash at Roswell, the NSA secretly develops a spherical time-ship that has the limited ability to send one person back in time, up to seven days. Called 'Project Backstep', it is reserved for selective use, only to undo significant, recent, disastrous events. The pilot, or chrononaut, of the 'sphere', is a Lt. Frank Parker. An ex-Navy SEAL with a loose-cannon/free-spirit quality, he is supported by a vast staff of technicians and a few main character specialists. Not only do they deal with correcting disasters, but also the only-slightly-better-than-crude, theoretical, patch-work, barely-understood execution of time travel.
