At 52,000 feet and dicing always with danger Squadron Leader Bob Gardener is facing the challenge of his lifetime. Ice cold conditions for which his Supermarine Spitfire was never designed eat at his extremities as he puts the nose of his aircraft down and powers at full throttle into a cloud bank that for him holds the secret of the sound barrier. Is he fated to be the first to cross that frontier as the Battle of Britain and World War 2 rage below? Others in his squadron had tried and failed, never to return, but Bob is on the threshold of a dynamic discovery and has never flinched from a challenge. As an ace Battle of Britain pilot he is prepared for most things, but no one could anticipate what awaits him when he brings his aircraft to earth sixty years into the future. Huge drama evolves as Bob becomes Lost In Time and is swept up in a wave of ethereal voyaging that buffets him through centuries to the early 18th century. Now trapped in time Bob is confronted with the savagery of the Hawkhurst Gang as they claim Kent and Southern England for their own in a land where no judicial system exists. Bob's advanced 20th century learning enables him to prosper in a primitive society. His pugilistic skills earn him a fat purse which he uses to purchase Trillinghurst Farm, a neglected but bountiful acreage which he converts into a hop farm. He creates work for the local residents, bringsprosperity to the land, wins the respect of a band of Gyspies and in the process rouses the ire of the Hawkhurst Gang. As the successful squire of the area he takes beautiful Meg as his wife - despite being married in the 20th century - but pays the price of a restless spirit. He is then pursued through time by wife Andrea Gardener who is determined to bring him home to 1941 and the sanctuary of Trillinghurst Farm . Bob Gardener - Lost In Time. Does he want to be found?
