Publisher's Synopsis
What if a global technology shutdown wasn't just an inconvenience, but a tear in the fabric of reality itself? When all digital systems mysteriously fail worldwide, two strangers with nothing in common except their canceled flights find themselves navigating more than just a world without screens.
Meet Liam, who structures his entire life around technology and planning, and Maya, an archaeologist who finds meaning in ancient civilizations that thrived without modern conveniences. Stranded at Frankfurt International Airport, they form an unexpected bond as the world around them grows increasingly strange-objects appear in different places for each of them, they remember shared conversations differently, and time itself seems to function by different rules for each.
As they fall for each other amid the chaos, they discover a terrifying truth: they're experiencing a quantum reality split. When systems reboot, only one of them will retain memories of their time together-but which one? Their race against the digital clock becomes a profound exploration of what it means to truly know another person when even shared reality can't be trusted.
Experience the mind-bending journey where quantum physics meets romance in "Layover in Limbo." A thought-provoking novel perfect for fans of Blake Crouch's "Dark Matter," Emily St. John Mandel's "Station Eleven," and the philosophical depth of Ted Chiang's stories. Available now in hardcover, paperback, and e-book.
