Her big brother Max is hiding behind his iPod, and her genius little brother Jackson is busy studying the creatures he collects from the beach. But when a watery specter begins to haunt the family’s Cape Cod home, Cara and her brothers realize that their scientist mother may not be who they thought she was—and that the world has much stranger, much older inhabitants than they had imagined. With help from Cara’s best friend Hayley, the three embark on a quest that will lead them from the Cape’s hidden, ancient places to a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea. They’re soon on the front lines of an ancient battle between good and evil, with the terrifying “pouring man” close on their heels.

With doing so, August is left with the hard choice of finding a job, keeping it and renting out another apartment. All of her dreams seem to be fulfilled when she sees an add in the news about a new personal assistant job opening up right around the corner of the cheap, inexpensive apartment she'd found. The trouble is, her boss can't seem to keep his hands off her.

A science fiction comedy along the lines of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Further Into The Future! is the story of a scientist, Professor John Bedford, who travels from 1949 to 2099 and becomes involved in a power struggle between two American dictators. Hammer, the dictator for thirty years, is overthrown in a coup by his handsome young protégé Cold Steel, known for using baseball metaphors in his speeches. The Professor expects a hero's welcome but instead he is ignored due to the civil strife and an uninterested populace. Eventually, a struggling rock band called the Time Travelers adopts him so he can perform in their show. Their rivals, the Corrupt Cops, steal their band equipment and the Professor's time machine, so the Time Travelers team up with other victimized bands to break into the Corrupt Cops' fortress and take back their possessions. If they succeed, they can compete in the American Rock Star contest for the honor of performing in the World Heritage Festival with cultural representatives from America's dictatorial allies. But Cold Steel is allied with the Corrupt Cops, so victory is impossible unless they find a way to put rather senile Hammer back in power.
