Biologist Domenica Ligrina lives in a dying world. In the year 2052, a nuclear disaster near the French-German border irradiates all of Northern Europe. Global warming runs rampant, and economic and political calamities threaten the survival of Earth. While human DNA mutates and plant species are going extinct, scientists like Domenica work day and night to save their planet. It becomes increasingly apparent that the key to saving the future lies in the past. The Middle Ages and the character of Nicholas Cusa hold Domenica spellbound. She immerses herself in the strange workings of a culture foreign to her, though she risks changing the future with effects far more disastrous than radiation poisoning.
