The Story Where the Veil falls
Jim Cooper was called the Einstein of Australia — a Nobel-winning neuroscientist before thirty. When the pandemic takes his mother Jasmine in Newcastle and leaves his newborn son Eden brain-damaged in Miami, his genius turns inward. He begins to lucid dream. And in the ancient stone ruins of Barzakh, the barrier between death and judgment, his mother is waiting.
What follows is a conversion that costs him his career, his marriage, his family, and finally his country. In the rain-slicked streets of Busan, under the wing of an atheist billionaire who funds the impossible, Jim builds a machine to carry the living into the afterlife. But some doors, once opened, cannot be closed — and some inventions must be protected with a life.
