Timeless Rest

In 2031, an unprecedented event known as the Great Catastrophe ushered in a new era of scientific discovery, revealing the truth about life and death-at the cost of 7.4 billion lives. Those who remained found themselves endowed with special abilities, ones that enabled perception above and beyond the physical world, leading to the discovery that death is an eternity trapped between universes. Sometimes, the truth is better left unsaid. It is now 2095. Raile Alton is the government's top scientist, and his talents are as prolific as his rage. He's developing technology to destroy the dead, who, trapped in limbo, wield power over the living on Earth. As the living work to evade death with a genetically flawless replacement for their physical bodies, the dead have teamed up with an army of living sympathizers plotting revolution. When a mysterious entity crashes a government raid, Raile stumbles upon the only survivor, Eethena Twenton, an alluring scientist turned revolutionary. He forces her to join him, but soon she has Raile questioning everything he's ever known. And Raile's not the only one realizing that nothing is as it seems. The revolutionaries have been infiltrated. A top government official has a dark agenda. Even the dead can be suborned. What starts as Raile's quest to destroy the dead becomes a journey of discovery: devastating loss and a heinous truth. But will Raile achieve victory against the dead, or will the truth erode the frail foundation of belief that he's built his life upon. And as the lines of battle shift, will he find solace, or simply shift the crosshairs of his rage?
