Celebrity product designer Matthew Beren and his enigmatic wife,
Sofia, have stumbled upon a stunning secret: millions of
unknown, sentient life forms are hiding in plain sight.
It's a
wondrous discovery... or is it? Though unable to speak, the hidden
beings appear to have formed close bonds with the oblivious residents of
Matt's hometown in subtle, seemingly magical ways that make the garden
flowers chime, the politics unite, and his company's robotics a
little too precise.
Then there are the unsettling hints implying
Sofia knows more than she's sharing, and furtive allegations that the
shadowy life forms might be advancing a hidden faction's attempt to
trigger a mind-bending catastrophe.
But could it be such a
terrifying plan is actually necessary? If so, Sofia's secrets and Matt's
shocking decisions could very well determine whether the mysterious
beings become humankind's saviors... or the architects of its
destruction.
