He was wrong.
When a series of impossible murders rocks TEC — each victim killed by a perfect duplicate of themselves — Walker is pulled out of retirement to consult on a case with no precedent and no comfortable answers. The killer is using lateral displacement technology that should not exist. The victims are dying in the past, the present, and everywhere in between. And somewhere in the shadows, a brilliant and grieving physicist is building something that makes every crime Walker ever investigated look like a warm-up act.
His name is Dr. Elias Vorn. He was TEC's greatest theoretical mind. He lost his wife to a disease that time could not reverse. And for twenty-two years he has been working on a solution so enormous, so final, and so devastating in its compassion that it will either save everyone who has ever lived — or end the possibility of living altogether.
He calls it the Omega Paradox.
Walker has faced corrupt politicians, rogue agents, and the tangled logic of his own altered timeline. He has never faced anything like this. And he has never had to face it alongside the most unsettling partner of his career: a temporal echo built from his own memories, carrying his own instincts, bleeding his own conscience — and running out of time.
A full-length sequel novel to the 1994 cult classic. For fans of the original film and readers who love intelligent, character-driven science fiction thrillers.
