Dark Alignment

A Hard Science Fiction Technothriller

De: David Haskell

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Gravity is the only constant in the universe. Until it starts hunting us.

Dean Eckert is a man of rules. As a physicist, he finds comfort in the predictable laws of nature. But when he discovers a terrifying anomaly in the atmosphere—a gravitational ripple that shouldn't exist—his orderly world is shattered.
First, his research is wiped. Then, his identity is erased. Finally, he is hunted.

Rescued by Jo, a rogue agent with a submersible sports car and a disregard for speed limits, Dean is dragged to a secret facility on the ocean floor. There, the truth is far worse than his math predicted. The anomaly isn't just a weather event. It’s a "gravimetric shear" that is tearing the planet apart, dissolving cities and "splinching" anyone unlucky enough to be caught in its wake.

With the surface world crumbling, Dean is forced to team up with a disgraced test pilot and a spy on a suicide mission aboard Space Force One. Their goal: to pierce the anomaly’s heart in orbit.

But Dean has realized something the generals haven't. The force destroying them isn't random. It reacts to biological life. It knows they are coming. And the only way to kill it might be to feed it the one thing Dean Eckert has left to give.

The laws of physics have been repealed. The countdown has begun.
