And what if the only way to save the future was to relive the past? But which past holds the key to survival?

A post-human space traveler caught in a cosmic accident searches for a way to reconstruct himself and the future. In Mark Budzβs spellbinding narrative, their livesβand deathsβare drawn together by a force even more powerful than destiny.
