Paradoxe
From an author praised by Vice Motherboard, a novel with a unique take on time travel, consequences, and human nature.
"However positive a change may seem, however negative the event, the analysis of all possible consequences is beyond our reach without an incredible computing mind such as yours. Now is the time to decide if the most important discovery of the century will enhance mankind’s destiny."
Jeanne's mind is condemned to compute the cause-effect relationship of everything that happens around her. This is both a unique gift and her greatest curse: despite her unparalleled ability to calculate the possibilities unravelling before her, human emotion and deception are an enigma –without her sister’s help.
When she loses her sister, Jeanne takes her gift to an elite time travel team in a bid to bring her back. Facing opponents who have spent their lives seeking to alter mankind’s evolution, Jeanne will have to fight to prove her value and her sanity.
Beating a Grandmaster at chess is nothing now, her quest to save her sister will be her most challenging game and put her brilliant mind to the ultimate test.
