Two best friends develop a groundbreaking computer capable of seeing one year into the future, but their invention threatens to unravel their friendship and society. Ben Boyce and Teddy Chaudry, outsiders in Silicon Valley, are inspired by Teddy's graduate dissertation on quantum computing. They envision a revolutionary technology that communicates with its future self, prompting them to leave their jobs and start a business to bring their device to consumers. As they navigate rival tech giants and government agencies attempting to undermine their innovation, they leverage their advanced technology to stay ahead of the competition. However, ambition, jealousy, and greed begin to fracture their bond. The duo soon realizes the dark implications of their creation—how peering into the future could lead to catastrophic consequences. They face a dire challenge: disrupt the very system they've built or risk losing everything. Presented through a mix of emails, texts, transcripts, and blog posts, this tech thriller explores the social costs of innovation and questions the lengths one would go to protect loved ones—even from themselves.
