The Current Beyond (Echo Series, Band 2) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

When Dr. Elias Voss switches on the Voss Array—a machine that “harvests order” from the electromagnetic noise around us—he expects a breakthrough in clean power. Instead, the Array tugs on something older: the Echo, the unseen keeper of balance between our world and the In Between. Mirrors ripple. People vanish mid-stream and mid-stride. And every watt the Array delivers is stolen from the only force holding the Veil together.

Abigail Jensen has spent years helping the dead cross. She knows when a house is lying and when a mirror is a door. Reporter Reese Mathers smells a cover-up the moment federal money arrives with staged smiles and NDAs. Lena Mirek, the one engineer who can make Elias stop and listen, watches the instrument readouts turn into omens. And Naveen—sharp-tongued, sleepless, brave—realizes too late that their elegant math has opened a hunger that can learn.

As Tacoma’s glass goes dark and the Veilborne drag souls into reflections, the team must do the unthinkable: tear down the invention that could change the world to save the world that’s left. But shutting the Array is only the start. To bring people back, they’ll have to reckon with the Echo itself—and with the truth that power always has a cost.

A razor-tense supernatural tech-thriller about ethics, grief, and the price of discovery, The Current Beyond fuses lab-grade science with night-black dread—and never lets go.

If you like:

• Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter for its high-concept science colliding with raw, personal stakes,

• Jeff VanderMeer’s Annihilation for its eerie, investigative descent into an inexplicable phenomenon,

• Justin Cronin’s The Passage for its sweeping sense of catastrophe, government secrets, and fragile hope,

…you’ll be right at home behind the Array’s safety tape—watching the mirrors—and turning pages long after midnight.

Perfect for readers of intelligent horror, speculative thrillers, and anyone who’s ever glanced at their reflection a second too long.
