Penny Gamešová, znuděná životem na předměstí a především zanedbávaná svým manželem Barneym, strčí jednoho dne hlavu do mikrovlnné trouby a ukončí tak drasticky svůj život. To ovšem netuší, že jí čeká převtělení. Barney, vynikající počítačový expert, náhle pozná, že ji velice miloval – chce ji získat zpět. Dopustí se kolosálního počítačového zločinu, nabourá se do sítě vládních počítačů a nakonec objeví způsob, jak se dostat zpátky časem do Mezopotámie, do roku 2642 před Kristem. Zde se zamiluje do chrámové prostitutky, která není nikdo jiný než převtělená milovaná Penny. Kromě toho se spřátelí s králem Gilgamešem, který se snaží odhalit tajemství nesmrtelnosti. Barney v Sumeru zjistí, že je schopen milovat a být přítelem, a pustí se do boje s mystériem smrti. Výsledky překvapí každého. Ve své nespoutané objevitelské cestě časem si Rob Swigart brousí vtip na tématu lásky a ztráty, viny a odpuštění, důmyslných technických vynálezů, mnohočetných orgasmů a také technologii zmrazování. Toto pozoruhodné dílo patří v autorově tvorbě k těm nejvynalézavějším a zcela jistě i k nejzábavnějším.
