Not every war starts with a frontal attack. Sometimes the most unobtrusive of things can be a threat. Ignorance will kill. In a world where the greatest enemies are spirits capable of discreetly possessing humans and taking on their personas, the fate of mankind seems sealed.
However, not all is lost. A last shred of hope may come in the most unlikely of forms and from different eras: The Chinese Jack the Ripper with his beautiful female accomplice, a gay Frenchman who knows more about flirting than battling, a naïve English pirate cross-dressing as a man who wants nothing more than to return to her ship, and a pair of Japanese-American twins who seem more obsessed with their own interests than the safety of mankind.
A tale of time-travelling and the acceptance of differences among people, along with plenty of teeth-gritting action against an enemy whom you'll never know is right before you, this story is guaranteed to be a non-stop page turner filled with adventure, unexpected romance and lots of laughs.
