In the quiet spaces, Jacob found ultimate fulfilment. Four children, a loving wife.

In chaos, struggles. Finances.

Money hadn't stopped him tattooing the names of his children and wife in Japanese, his wife's native language, in beautiful script. Symbols of devotion.

Wife hand't approved of the expenditure, through she loved it in principle.

Desperate, Jacob robbed a bank. Endeavour almost successful, in the end the cops shot him dead.

His family grieved; the funeral beautiful.

In Safdarjung, a strangely marked baby is born, grows into a brilliant, confused boy. Always speaking of time travel, going back 43years to warn himself.

    Wow, I feel like I just read a story by the Wachowski's brothers! In other words, it is very good!
