Synopsis
"Frietas, master of a vast world-wide commercial empire, had commissioned his engineers to build him a device that could ransack the past. All the riches of the ages would be his for the taking but riches alone were not what Freitas craved. He longed for supreme power--and from the Pandora's box of the past he picked out the cunning men and women who could help him achieve absolute mastery over his rivals. He had not counted on opposition but there was a major frightening flaw in his scheme--the power these human monsters from the centuries past would have over him--the reign of terror was about to begin."--Pg. [4] of cover.
