Born on opposite ends of history. Together, they will rewrite it.
YEAR 2397. Seventeen year-old Miranda Hawking thinks she’s a nobody. In a time when the human race is governed by luminous supercomputers set among the stars, she toils away in the back rooms of her family business, a rehab center for troubled members of a brilliantly intelligent species known as channelers. Little does she know, Brightside, her most frustrating and darkly alluring patient, harbors a stomach-churning secret: he is a channeler in exile from a classified experiment to alter the fundamental physics of reality. When the shadowy Information Police converge on her home, she is launched into a deathly web of intrigue that will take her through the highest circle of human space, to the edge of the lens capable of bending time itself...
YEAR 1058. Friskin York, on the other hand, really is a nobody. After a day of back-breaking working the fields, he is a treated to a night learning painting on a frigid mountainside with the Old Master, his eccentric mentor. When a disturbed young woman materializes in the forest, muttering abject lunacy, Friskin sees in her a kindred spirit to his own tragic background of isolation and loss. By making a flash decision to shield her from the violence of an oncoming invasion, Friskin sets the stage for what may become the unlikeliest connection between two souls ever made.
Together, Miranda and Friskin will seek to unravel a mystery with strands reaching all the way from the blood-soaked shadows of the Dark Ages, to the glowing information super-networks of the far future, to the sleek boardrooms and fluorescent parking garages of the modern American city. As it begins to emerge that their relationship has startling implications for everyone, past and future, they must find a way to restore the broken shards of history. But will doing so cost them the ultimate price—their ability to reach out, when times are tough, and hold one another’s hands?
Dive into the epic, genre-bending saga reviewers are calling “simply world-class,” “often hilarious” and “beautifully lyrical science fiction.”
