In one terrible day, high-school science nerd Anna Reyes loses her college scholarship, gets thrown back to ancient Greece in a lab accident, and becomes the only person who can save the world. The only thing Anna ever wanted was to be just like her celebrity-physicist father. Now she’s stuck in the past with his best student Indy, a snarky, genetically-enhanced border collie and physics postdoc. The two of them have all the technology of the future at their fingertips.
