More about the book

In this standalone novel, Doctor Benjamin Schröder, a history teacher and department chair at Castle Rock University, leads a seemingly perfect life until a psychotic episode shatters his reality. During a discussion about his star student Elzbietá Abramowski's dissertation on Operation Yellow Brick, he is suddenly overwhelmed by vivid, horrifying false memories of a world where the operation never occurred. In this alternate reality, millions suffer in extermination camps, the Soviet Union persists, and global tensions escalate dangerously. With the support of Commander Abramowski, a decorated Navy pilot grappling with her own PTSD, Benjamin learns to manage his nightmares. However, his life takes another turn when Raibert Kaminski arrives with a disturbing tale of alternate realities and temporal storms threatening multiple universes. Initially dismissing Kaminski as insane, Benjamin faces a chilling possibility: what if the alternate world is real? This revelation forces him to confront a harrowing choice that could determine the fate of countless lives across universes, including the woman he loves. The stakes are unimaginably high as he grapples with the moral implications of his decisions.
