Valley Beyond Time tells of the fortunes of the Senator from Texas who first saw Cibola in his long-distant youth and made it the object of his life's search. It tells, too, of the small boy who pushed across the frontier between the worlds; and of the embittered girl - duke's daughter, policewoman, chaffeuse-lady-maid - who went leaping gladly to adventure through the gateway of time. It recounts, as well, the repercussions of these events upon a retired judge at a Welsh seaside resort, a priest, a grocer's daughter, a super-glossy, super-calculating American beauty, and the most celebrated compiler of crosswords in England.
