About This Book

A determined man stakes out a tourist attraction on a hostile planet to confront a particular visitor, then follows him onto a perilous feature known as the Nature's Moebius Strip. The Strip's disorienting gravity and rising pain force both men to the edge of endurance; one vanishes and the other collapses. He wakes with a wide gap in his memory and realizes he once planned a flawless crime but cannot recall its nature. The narrative tracks his effort to inventory scattered recollections and confront the unsettling link between bodily shock, sensory distortion, and vanished memory.
