In 1929 a retired newspaper editor vacationing in the archeological digs of an old Mayan ruin has a preternatural vision that tells him Earth was created as an experiment in altered consciousness by children of higher beings who then forgot their original awareness. Although the vision occurred over a six day period, the editor spends the next forty years of his life transcribing his original notes into two large journals mailed posthumously to his grandchild as a strange inheritance.
