Overview

'They built a time machine in a forum. What they found on the other end was never supposed to be found.

Benjamin Barraclough is an ex-newsman turned science fiction obsessive, the kind of man who debates warp drives and paradoxes with strangers on the internet. When his friend Julian quietly engineers the impossible, a device capable of traversing both space and time, their small circle of SciFi forum friends steps out of the thread and into the universe itself.

What they find in the distant future is not the gleaming civilisation they imagined. It is silence. A depopulated Earth, emptied of humanity, full of questions no one has lived to answer.

But the future doesn't stay quiet for long, not when someone else already knows what's out there.

O/V is a former criminal with a gift for opportunity. He sees what Benjamin's group has stumbled onto, the ultimate leverage, and moves to claim it. His actions trigger something far older and stranger than any of them bargained for: the Time Police, hybrid clones engineered to protect the integrity of the timeline, whose authority is absolute.

Until it isn't.

When O/V vanishes, the investigation that follows pulls Benjamin and his friends into a conspiracy that stretches across eras, weaving together crime, survival, love, and relationships between species who were never meant to meet. The timeline is fraying. And ordinary people, armed with nothing but curiosity and each other, may be the only ones left to hold it together.

A mind-bending adventure for readers who believe science fiction should ask the questions that keep you awake at 2am, and answer them in ways you never saw coming.

For fans of Blake Crouch, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Connie Willis, and H.G. Wells.
