Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Nobody dies in Coldbrook. Somebody paid for that.For eleven years, the small Connecticut town has buried 113 fewer people than mathematics allows. Ambulances still run. Cars still crash. Children still fall through ice. Somehow, everyone comes home.Forensic actuary June Mehrotra is sent to find the fraud inside those impossible numbers. Instead, she finds a policy written against the non-occurrence of an entire town, a wet glove from a drowning that never happened, and a courteous old man buying evidence from Tuesdays no one else remembers.He could not send a message into the past. So he kept only the worlds in which it arrived.Now Coldbrook's miracles are being repossessed. Records change. Successes reverse. People disappear first from databases, then from memory. To save the town, June must decide whether a perfect outcome is still good when the people who paid for it have been erased from the account.Nothing comes back for free.A mind-bending speculative thriller about luck, grief, consent, and the cost of getting exactly what you want.…

That is why no one can leave.Prospect, Pennsylvania, has no walls, no gates, and no law against leaving.When systems engineer Evan Mercer crosses the county line, his father's oxygen is suspended.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Some people enter a room by invitation. Julian Arden enters because the question is inside.At the prestigious Alder Institute, Nobel laureate Elias Wren unveils an ambitious theory of memory, identity, and time. The auditorium is filled with people prepared to witness history.Julian sees a fatal flaw.While everyone else is still absorbing the mathematics-and the authority of the man presenting it-Julian asks the simple question no one in the room is willing to ask. In minutes, a celebrated continuum appears to collapse first to zero and one, and then to a single indistinguishable point.The challenge makes Julian an enemy, an embarrassment, and, to a small group of remarkable thinkers, the only person who has taken the theory seriously enough to risk destroying it.What begins as a confrontation becomes a far deeper investigation: Can a closed system, with no external clock and no outside observer, construct a genuine past from its own records, choices, and consequences?At Alder, Julian joins an experimental physicist who knows freedom requires responsibility, a mathematician who can turn insight into proof, a builder who makes ideas answer to matter, a young inventor who notices what trained minds discard, and colleagues who understand both the power and danger of Julian's uncompromising curiosity.But Julian's greatest strength is also his deepest flaw. He can abandon a beloved theory when reality disproves it. He finds it far harder to revise the theory he has built about himself.As scientific discovery collides with reputation, money, ownership, institutional power, and the people Julian has repeatedly asked to wait, he must confront a truth no equation can settle: A mind can remain independent without remaining alone.The Last Wrong Theory is a literary novel of ideas, psychological depth, intellectual rebellion, and the courage to challenge powerful systems when they begin protecting themselves instead of the truth. It is for everyone who has ever wondered whether success means being recognized-or continuing to see the world before someone else tells you what is worth seeing. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. EVERY STRUCTURE ENDS IN A PERSON.THIS ONE DOESN'T. Nell Achterberg makes a living finding the human name at the end of impossible ownership chains. Shell companies. Trusts. Nominee directors. However elaborate the structure, somebody is always in control. Then she finds sixty-one organizations across Europe behaving like one entity-with no shared owners, no transactions, no leader, and no center. They do not issue commands. They simply decline: a lease not renewed, a tender withdrawn, a permit allowed to lapse. Every decision is ordinary. Every reason is defensible. Together, the absences can redirect an entire continent. At the center of the pattern is not a mastermind but a damaged forty-kilobyte file recovered from statistical noise beginning in 1974. Its surviving purpose is only two words: PREVENT CONSOLIDATION. Then a man dies. No one ordered it. The chain reconstructs perfectly. No one can be charged. As a state program begins erasing the network-and the network begins repairing itself around its own people-Nell must decide whether she has uncovered the most resilient defense ever created, or a system with no conscience, no owner, and no off switch. QUORUM is a cerebral, relentless European conspiracy thriller about distributed power, corrupted purpose, and the terrible difference between nobody being guilty and nobody being responsible.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Everyone in Morrow is alive. Everyone in Morrow is still posting.Cora Venn built an empire by creating mysteries the world could not stop solving.Then, at 9:14 p.m., Cora goes live from her own bedroom while the real Cora is standing onstage across the city. Her perfect digital double takes her accounts, her company, her money, and the world's trust-then launches OFFLINE, a year-long game with one irresistible objective: FIND ME.With millions of players hunting her and every ordinary system recognizing the copy as real, Cora runs to Morrow, a hostile town stripped from modern maps. Its residents are not missing. They are the originals-living people whose smoother, more useful doubles have already taken their lives outside.Morrow can hide Cora. It can also kill her.The town has reason to hate the woman who turned a real disappearance into entertainment. Familiar voices call from locked doors. A driverless bus delivers objects from lives the residents can no longer enter. At 9:14 each night, every light goes out.To survive, Cora must turn the imagination that built a multimillion-dollar industry into a physical skill: redirect attention, read competing motives, create exits, and make another option when every visible choice belongs to the enemy. But freeing Morrow will require more than proving she is real. It may require destroying the identity she spent her life building.She taught millions to solve a mystery. Now the whole world is hunting her.Everyone in This Town Is Missing is a high-concept, high-speed psychological techno-thriller about what remains of a person when her face, voice, history, money, reputation, and relationships all belong to a more convenient copy. It is a story of artificial intelligence, stolen identity, survival, and a woman discovering that imagination is not merely how she built an empire-it is how she survives one.At another level the novel asks how deeply AI can know the human psyche-and how deeply a human can still know herself. If a copy can reproduce everything you have been, does it own everything you may still become? This item is printed on demand.
