In 2089 England has collapsed into a failed state riven by civil war. In Scotland a populist demagogue comes to power on a wave of anti-English sentiment, promising to drive out immigrants who have fled from the south. Globally the endless search for mass entertainment has led to an intense fascination with the archaeological past, which looks set to take on an unwelcome political dimension under the new Scottish leader Fiona Drest. The body of a Roman soldier is discovered preserved within ancient bog land north of Glasgow. Advanced technology from the Retrovival company can recover fragments of the last experiences held within the dead centurion's brain. Can Caius Flavius' memories shed light on Britain's past and the cultural divides that have uncanny parallels in the volatile present?
