2080: at a remote control site within the edge of the Arctic Group, several scientists, engineers and physicians collect to gamble humanity’s future on one last-ditch test. Their objective: to produce a small alteration to the past, averting a worldwide catastrophe while at exactly the same time leaving recorded history intact. To help make the test work, they simply need one last recruit: an ageing schoolteacher whose late mom was the foremost expert for the mathematics of paradox.

2028: a young woman switches into surgery for routine brain medical procedures. In the times following her procedure, she begins to hear another tone of voice in her head… an unwanted existence which seems to have a will, and a purpose, all its – one that will disrupt her existence entirely. The only choice remaining to her is a simple one.

Will she resist … or become a collaborator?
