Marcus Elren, an economics teacher, is a devoted admirer of Adrian Kael - the first president of Auritania, a wealthy democratic nation in the year 2086. When Marcus signs up for the Heritage Time Tour and Travel, a bureau that takes tourists to the past, he chooses a trip two days before Auritania's declaration of independence. In 1946, he shares a quiet moment and a cup of hot tea. Then he returns home. But the Auritania he knows is gone. The democracy is replaced by a socialist regime ruled by the tyrant Veyron Solas. Adrian Kael is erased from history, remembered only in secret, and Marcus carries the unbearable truth - it all began with that one cup of tea.
