Stewart Hotston, a scientist by training, delivers an enthralling science fiction thriller involving an alien artefact and the implications of its arrival. In the 1970s something lands on a beach in Devon. An artefact that twists space time and renders our grasp of reality irrelevant. Somehow, it also endows those near it with the ability to change the laws of physics. Forty years later suspicions grow that there may be a second artefact. In Russia. Moses is sent to investigate and, if necessary, neutralise the threat. Told across two generations, this gripping tale follows a father, Ben, and his son, Moses, separated by forty years as the former helps set up a government agency to deal with the phenomenon and the latter deals with the consequences of his late father's actions.
