The Mysterious Stranger

Der Chemiker Alwyn Alistair hat sich ins Jahr 1993 abgesetzt - nach Mexiko. Im 22. Jahrhundert hat Alistair eine gefährliche Droge hergestellt und vertrieben. Darien soll den Chemiker zurückbringen. In Mexiko trifft Darien zu seiner Überraschung einen Doppelgänger von Alistair, der sich als Privatdetektiv Romulo Rayfield ausgibt. Rayfield gibt vor, von Sahmbi auf Alistair angesetzt worden zu sein, der sich auf einer schwer bewachten und abgelegenen Plantage befinden soll.

Lambert is called to Mexico by a personal ad "if you want to find professor Alwyn". Alwyn, a fugitive from the future, disappeared after being convicted for making deadly drugs. When Lambert comes to Mexico, he discovers Alwyn directly, but it turns out not to be Alwyn, but a private investigator from the future, who wants to find Alwyn as well. Lambert doesn't want the PI to tag along, but it seems he has no choice. However, when they find Alwyn's hideout, the lawyer tries to kill him, resulting only in a severe head wound on Lambert. The lawyer discloses that he's really a doctor whose wife was killed by Alwyn's drugs. But soon Lambert learns that the doctor is not a doctor either, but a policeman. Or an actor... And Lambert can't even be sure of that. But he has to find Alwyn before his new batch of drugs is completed and shipped out.

Lambert sigue una pista de Alwyn, un fugitivo del futuro, que desapareció tras ser condenado por fabricar drogas mortales. Lambert tiene que encontrarlo antes de que complete y envíe un nuevo lote de medicamentos.
