Theorizing that one could time-travel within his own lifetime, Dr. Leo Sturbgetter stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator… and vanished. He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing cattle that were not his own, and driven by an unknown force to detangle them for the better. His only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time, who appears in the form of a hologram that only Leo can see and hear. And so Dr. Sturbgetter finds himself leaping from pasture to pasture, striving to detangle what once became tangled, and hoping each time that his next leap will be the leap home.
