Hertell Daggett is not what he used to be: once hitched, once a physicist, and once shot in the top in a New Year's accident. Or possibly Fourth of July, he could never keep in mind - the doctors got the bullet out, but a few specks of copper continued to be floating in his brain, connecting parts no longer connected in ordinary people, filaments going back to the start of time. He remembers the sounds of dinosaurs, the dry laughter of mastodons, and the rubbery smell of trilobites. He'd once got a future, but now he lives on the outskirts of Bakersfield, a destroyed caretaker of any failing family pet cemetery.Hertell discovers a time-capsule, actually a vast time-cavern filled with people who've lived beneath the family pet cemetery since 1963. They can be part of any long-forgotten Federal program to protect Western civilization in the charred aftermath of the significant nuclear war triggered by JFK's assassination - at least that's what their computer simulation forecasted. He becomes their shepherd and protector leading the duck-and-cover civilization in to the astounding, mystifying, and often dismaying world that has wobbled on without them. Like one particular lost tribes stumbling from the jungle into civilization, only this time around it's not the primitives who are overwhelmed by civilization, but quite definitely the other way around, and they will shell out the dough. In guarding his flock, Hertell locates a love he never quite lost, a history he never quite remembered, and another he never quite thought.
