The Eternity Project

The Eternity Project is a story of a discovery that was not expected to happen on a timeline that shouldn’t exist.

Reid Walton, a college history professor, and a conspiracy author is invited to join a mysterious science project. Even though he’s a history expert, he can’t understand why they picked him and what he should expect.

In a secret laboratory in the mountains, Reid is introduced to the main venture, which includes time travel, which they claim is safe enough for public attraction.

He feels somehow misplaced since he is surrounded by a more brilliant scientist, a genius manager. He was picked because of his published books about time travel conspiracy theories. He accepted the offer without knowing it would be a real-life travel adventure.

He has to pay attention to the names correctly as they are mentioned and the little deviation in the theory because they are all essential. The project’s inventor doesn’t seem to have the right skills to do the invention, which relies on a tachyon source that hasn’t been discovered.

The project manager turns out to be a former female cal swimmer who has a secret crush on the professor and gets confused after learning that she will be working with him closely. The team has a working vehicle, and in the process of the astonishing revelation comes another.
The time travel technology is said to be stolen property, but where was it stolen from? The faster and light particles that make up the time machine work don’t exist anywhere in the known world except the mysterious inventor’s possession, who isn’t willing to tell his source. Is there a possibility that they could have come from the future?

The lab team led by the genius Dr. Sara Dearborn helps Reid find answers to the mystery he was picked to solve. However, unveiling the truth soon turns dangerous as he discovers that there is more at stake than a time machine. He realizes that flushing out the quarry may get all killed and destroy the timeline.

What follows is a conspiracy nightmare as Reid finds himself and his fellow travelers thrown into history in an uncontrolled way, all thanks to the bad guy amongst them. They have a clue of who he’s; they have to prove it and succeed in taking him down.

Propelled across history, Reid Sara and their team will have to fight for survival amid the Nazis, Vikings, and a psychopath planning to kill, even if it means the timeline itself, to prevent him from his award.

The prize will give power more seductive than the time travel itself.
