Before the turn of the 19th century, Victorian England is once again beset by plague. Thoth prowls the streets to find the young couple he needs before returning to help his friend who lives outside of the city.
Lord Algernon and the people at his home think they are going to take refuge on the Moon to escape the ravages of plague. Thoth knows differently. He's a time traveller with a mission, to enable the craft he's helping Algernon build to reach Mars.
But that's only the beginning. He's seen into the future and knows that in a couple of centuries' time, invaders will reach Mars. If successful there, the next target is Earth, and then his own homeworld.
Friends and allies will come from strange and different places and, after waiting time after time, the man Thoth already loves will be the one to wake him. If his resting place remains undisturbed.
For their future isn't guaranteed.
