About this book

An asteroid three hundred kilometers long suddenly enters Earth's orbit. Rather than solid rock, it contains a series of hollowed chambers housing ancient, abandoned cities of human origin from a civilization called Thistledown. The people who inhabited these cities survived a nuclear holocaust that nearly destroyed humanity—an event set to occur more than a thousand years in the future. To prevent this catastrophic future, theoretical mathematician Patricia Vasquez is tasked with exploring Thistledown and uncovering its secret history. Her investigation reveals an even greater mystery: a tunnel that exists beyond the physical dimensions of the asteroid. Known as the Way, this tunnel leads to the home of humanity's descendants and exposes a conflict far larger than the impending war between Earth's superpowers over control of the asteroid.
