How far would you go to save a ghost?
Arthur Pendelton is a Level 4 Auditor for the Multiverse Tax Agency. His job is based on simple, brutal math: energy cannot be created or destroyed, only borrowed. And when an alternate timeline borrows too much, Arthur liquidates it. He doesn't save people. He erases them to keep Prime Reality from collapsing.
For five years, he has lived as a quiet, compliant bureaucrat, mourning the tragic death of his wife, Sarah. Until he discovers a massive, unauthorized energy deficit in Timeline 89-Sigma.
When Arthur investigates, he finds the thief: an alternate version of himself. And he finds the reason: Sarah.
In Timeline 89, Sarah is alive, cured of her terminal illness by the stolen quantum capital. But the multiverse is a ledger, and the ledger is bleeding. Prime Reality is tearing itself apart to cover the debt, and the Agency has dispatched its most ruthless enforcers to execute Sarah and reclaim the stolen energy.
For the first time in his life, Arthur refuses to close the books.
Now a fugitive from the very system he helped build, Arthur must outrun heavily armed Sweepers and navigate fracturing dimensions to protect the woman he couldn't save in his own life. But the laws of thermodynamics cannot be broken forever. The universe is demanding a refund, and balancing the equation will require a sacrifice that will echo across reality.
Eight billion lives, or the woman he loves. The audit is due.
A high-octane blend of mind-bending science fiction and profound emotional suspense, Timeline 89 is a relentless tech-thriller. Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter, Andy Weir, and The Adjustment Bureau.
