A page-turning science-fiction thriller from the author of Paradox Bound and the Ex-Heroes series.
Step into the fold. It's perfectly safe.
The folks in Mike Erikson's small New England town would say he's just your average, everyday guy. And that's exactly how Mike likes it. Sure, the life he's chosen isnโt much of a challenge to someone with his unique gifts, but heโs content with his quiet and peaceful existence. ย
That is, until an old friend presents him with an irresistible mystery, one that Mike is uniquely qualified to solve: far out in the California desert, a team of DARPA scientists has invented a device they affectionately call the Albuquerque Door. Using a cryptic computer equation and magnetic fields to โfoldโ dimensions, it shrinks distances so that a traveler can travel hundreds of feet with a single step.
The invention promises to make mankindโs dreams of teleportation a reality. And, the scientists insist, traveling through the Door is completely safe. Yet evidence is mounting that this miraculous machine isnโt quite what it seemsโand that its creators are harboring a dangerous secret. As his investigations draw him deeper into the puzzle, Mike begins to fear thereโs only one answer that makes sense. And if heโs right, it may only be a matter of time before the project destroysโฆeverything. ย
A cunningly inventive mystery featuring a hero worthy of Sherlock Holmes and a terrifying final twist youโll never see coming, The Fold is that rarest of things: a genuinely page-turning science-fiction thriller.
