Book Description
“I am Dmitri. Let us begin.”
*****
Nine years ago, five college students conceived a way to use atmospheric energy to predict mass acts of human violence. A tragic event ended the project, and team leaders Aiyana and Brian haven’t spoken since. Overwhelmed with guilt, Brian has spent the years alone in his lab redeveloping the energy model. Aiyana, now a doctor, refuses to acknowledge his covert research—until the new model predicts a threat to their heartland town.
The teammates reunite under a cloud of mutual contempt and buried affections. As the urgency rises with each new piece of data, they challenge each other’s philosophies and struggle to cope with their inner fears.
“Don’t you see? We never know what’s going to happen next, but uncertainty can be either the root of fear or the cornerstone of hope. It all depends on the observer.”
