Old Historians, New Historians, No Historians
Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist for Fiction
In the year AD 2754 there are no more history books. Instead, Historians travel back in time to attend historically significant events and report on things as they actually happened, not as traditional history has always told us they happened. Then they upload these reports to the Educator Database, which 28th century history teachers use to create and develop their course curriculum.
In this satire of twenty-first century America, our lives are being covertly observed by Historians from the year AD 2754, who have observed us since the beginning of time. The future world's population now lives in oceans across the globe and the time continuum, where they have no hunger, no countries, and no religion. They even, finally, designed a new world order to promote lasting peace.
One Historian unthinkingly and illegally says two words to two AD 2021 "locals" in a misstep that could potentially trigger a disastrous alternate history. To repair this "anomaly" and return the time continuum and recorded history to its original state, 28th century world leaders gather an emergency team, which includes four psychopathic Historians, called "Heroes." Psychopaths do the dirtiest jobs because they have limited emotional responses, no empathy, and they thrive on danger.
It will take more than four psychopaths to put the time continuum back into place. Non-psychopathic Historian Avid and local psychologist Helen have also been assigned to the emergency team. Avid must learn 28th century psychotherapy techniques, and then teach them to Helen in the hope that she can use them to dissuade her disturbed client from murdering an adolescent who is supposed to grow up to be a highly consequential historical figure. Those two careless words spoken by that other time traveler have now put the boy's life at risk and threaten the future of the world.
