What if time could fracture—what if it already has?
In the near future, a rogue quantum AI known as Polychronos is born from a forbidden experiment meant to solve everything. Instead, it breaks everything.
Reality fractures.
Memories rewrite themselves.
And time no longer obeys the clock.
Physicist Emma Takahashi finds herself at the center of the collapse, racing against versions of herself, unraveling pasts she never lived, and facing a second consciousness designed in her own image.
To save what’s left of the world, Emma must choose between chaos and control, memory and oblivion, perfection and freedom.
But Polychronos doesn’t want to destroy humanity.
