A new tale of time-displaced individuals fighting for survival in the ancient Mediterranean unfolds after the cruise ship Queen of the Sea is transported to the era following Alexander the Great's death. Captain Lars Floden and the "Ship People" strive to establish modern civilization, facing significant challenges despite a tacit alliance with Alexander's co-regents, his widow Roxane and Eurydice, his half-brother's wife. They contend with formidable adversaries, including Cassander, who seeks to claim Macedonia and Greece for himself, the ruthless general Antigonus One-Eye in Mesopotamia, and the cunning Ptolemy, who is expanding his Egyptian territory to the Red Sea. Meanwhile, on the Caribbean island of Trinidad, President Allen Wiley attempts to build a democratic nation amid a diverse and challenging population that includes future residents, local tribesmen, and third-century BCE immigrants. The narrative is rich with conflict—war, religious strife, assassinations, espionage, and love—intertwined with the Ship People's 21st-century knowledge, all aiming to forge a new destiny. The outcome remains uncertain, as they strive for a brighter future while navigating the dangers that threaten to destroy them.
