Sometimes, kidnapping seems like the best solution. The gentle academic Phillip Rayburn has unlocked the secret to time travel but needs a reliable partner to work and reside on site. Enter Nancy Wolfe, brilliant, down on her luck, and grumpy, whom Phillip kidnaps to prevent his work from being exposed and to avoid lengthy explanations. A humorous and poignant friendship unfolds as Nancy initially views time travel as her adversary, but later as a form of redemption.
