Full Description
A high-concept near-future science fiction thriller told in a noir style.
Metropolitan Police detective Lewis Drake is shot dead, a bad start to the day. He finishes his macchiato and departs to begin his shift.
It gets worse when the murder case he is assigned involves one of the entangled, those who have learned to live in the many worlds of the quantum multiverse without losing their minds. Lewis despises the entangled and hates the drugs they take to join their alternate selves.
The case expands into a complex web of murder, corruption, conspiracy and espionage with the entangled gang leader Vidmar at its centre. Lewis’s sister Alice knows all the answers but she is lost in the chaos of a multitude of realities. Only if Lewis overcomes his prejudices and takes the black capsule that will open his mind to other lives will he be able to solve the murders, find the elusive Erica, and protect Alice.
