A mind-bending, cerebral sci-fi thriller that explores the frontiers of quantum computing, the nature of time, and whether humanity will survive for long enough to encounter extraterrestrial life.
“A gripping near-future thriller. The story frequently spins off in satisfyingly unexpected directions and, best of all, wraps up with a clever, thought-provoking ending.”
