 A couple of buddies get together on D-Day every year for a reunion to re-live their World War II days in France.

One man's daughter and the other man's son are now engaged to be married and they are living in New York - the site of this year's reunion. (The other man lives in Iowa where he is the president of a bank.)

Doug, the son of one of them, is a computer engineer and has been involved in the development of a hand-held computer that can only be described as a sort of "Magic Eight-Ball." People ask it questions, and it prints out an answer on a small tape.

He and the other man's daughter are getting ready to attend a charity fund-raiser and use the computer to tell people's fortunes as a way of raking in donations.

Before they leave, the young lady demonstrates the computer to her father and future father-in-law. But, it provides some disturbing answers to the questions they ask it - and that sets the stage for the rest of this adventure.
