Azazel, a high school senior, finds himself plagued by a common yet seemingly incurable affliction--an ever-present boredom. However, this all changes after he receives a mysterious letter from a Silicon Valley tech developer known as the Parsons Institute inviting him to participate in their research. Accepting this offer leads Azazel headfirst into a world of parallel universes, Artificial Intelligence, and whirlwind romance. But, when Azazel learns the truth about the Parsons Institute and the organization's goals, he's faced with a choice--risk his life and freedom to save the girl at the center of everything, or walk away and allow evil to triumph through his own inaction. The former damns Azazel to almost certain death, but the latter is almost certainly worse than death. From the best-selling short story writer Cameron Carpenter (Ordinary Beauty, Two-Faced) comes a full-length, suspenseful, action-packed romance novel that has set a new bar in science fiction. Readers of all ages will find it impossible not to empathize with the unique characters Carpenter has created, and the fast pace and brilliant plot-twists will keep you on the edge of your seat all the way through to the riveting finale.
