C. dos Santos

C. Dos Santos has devoted his career to the study of power systems, where frequencies, resonance, and invisible phenomena play a fundamental role. His fascination with the vibrations that course through our world naturally led him to another frequency: the Schumann resonance, often described as the Earth's "heartbeat."

Passionate about the great civilizations of antiquity, he is captivated by the peoples who erected colossal monuments using what we now consider primitive means. How did they truly accomplish such extraordinary feats? How much of their knowledge has been lost? And what remains buried beneath the sand, the stone, or the oceans, waiting to be discovered?

With The Song of Silence, he presents his first story, the opening movement of a four-part cycle entitled The Seventh String. More than a series of four stories, it is a composition in four movements, where each narrative has its own voice, rhythm, and instrument while exploring the same enduring question: what remains of us when what defines us disappears?

Each volume immerses the reader in a different scientific and human landscape, where frequencies, memory, silence, and the mysteries of our planet echo one another like the notes of a single composition. Although each novel can be read independently, together they form an ambitious scientific thriller in which every movement enriches the others, inviting readers to follow their own sense of listening.

The concerto, however, comes to life only in the hands of the one who opens the book.
