About This Book

The narrative centers on a widowed mother living quietly with her teen son until a secret micro-cylinder that enables instantaneous spatial transfer, the Konv, marks the boy and alters their lives. The mother, herself implanted and linked to a clandestine circle that learned the Stinson Effect, has long concealed her past and her husband's murder by Agents. When the son receives the device unexpectedly, she explains the origin and mechanics of the cylinders, their plans for escape and revenge, and the moral costs of a life spent hiding, while the story examines secrecy, loss, and the yearning for freedom.
