A quantum physicist shocks the world with a startling experiment, igniting a struggle between science and theology, free will and fate, and antagonizing forces not known to exist. Eric Argus is a washout. His prodigious early work clouded his reputation and strained his sanity. But an old friend gives him another chance, an opportunity to step back into the light. With three months to produce new research, Eric replicates the paradoxical double-slit experiment to see for himself the mysterious dual nature of light and matter. A simple but unprecedented inference blooms into a staggering discovery about human consciousness and the structure of the universe. His findings are celebrated and condemned in equal measure, but no one can predict where the truth will lead. And as Eric seeks to understand the unfolding revelations, he must evade shadowy pursuers who believe he knows entirely too much already.

Just Plain Good reading without sensationalism.

For anyone that enjoys a good mystery/thriller where there’s minimal “blow’em ups” and maximum
intellectual challenges, this is the book to listen to. Focusing on a quantum physicist, Eric Argus, who has had more than his share of failures, our determined scientist forged ahead to try and replicate the paradoxical double-slit experiment to satisfy himself that there is in fact a duality of light and matter. In the process, he discovers unheard of connections between our consciousness and the cosmos. Read with authority by Keith Szarbijka, one is left in awe at the end: could it be? A fascinating journey for the curious and science buffs. - Odin Roark
