In this high-concept thriller, three competing interests race to master a dangerous and mind-bending technology even as time itself twists in unexpected directions. A flawless work of astonishing complexity and explosive tension, drawn from the latest developments in life science and quantum theory.
Reese Clawson's work is mind-bending—literally. Her company specializes in global data analysis for an elite group of industry executives, and now a lucrative government contract is moving her into the realm of cutting-edge intelligence gathering. She is determined to crack the limits of consciousness—and in doing so, the boundaries of secrets and lies. But her experiment crashes as test subjects slide into a coma-like state. Reese is left scrambling to maintain control, drawing three disparate people into the search for answers—an adrenaline-amped thrill junkie with altered brain chemistry, an Italian scientist working on remote-viewing technology, and a math prodigy whose algorithms subvert computer encryption.
As the threads of perception and reality become tangled and even time itself twists in unexpected directions, one warning remains clear: What you don't know can kill you.
Combining the science of today with breakthroughs of the future, Locke delivers a story with a concept so daring and writing so explosive, it will leave fans turning the pages and grasping for solid ground.
