At 3:17 A.M., the world stops.
For seven terrifying minutes, everything in the city freezes. Cars hang motionless in intersections. Rain stops in midair. People become statues. Even airplanes remain suspended above the streets.
But forty-seven people can still move.
One of them is rookie police officer Aaron Vale.
What begins as an investigation into a woman's impossible disappearance leads Aaron to a building that should not exist: The Meridian. Official records claim it was built only six months ago. A secret government agency has been watching it for thirty-one years.
Inside The Meridian are people with impossible abilities, forgotten secrets, and a doorway to another world.
Then Aaron discovers the truth.
The seven-minute freeze has happened before. Six times.
Each cycle changed civilization. Each time, reality was rewritten.
Now the seventh cycle has begun.
As governments collapse, Variants with extraordinary abilities emerge, and beings from another world cross into ours, Aaron must uncover the secret buried beneath The Meridian before reality itself breaks apart.
But the greatest mystery is Aaron himself.
He has lived through the apocalypse before.
Not once.
Not twice.
Thousands of times.
And every version of Earth ends the same way.
This time, Aaron has one impossible choice:
Save the world-or destroy the machine that keeps creating it.
THE CITY THAT SHOULDN'T EXIST is a science-fiction mystery thriller filled with alternate realities, secret agencies, supernatural abilities, time anomalies, hidden civilizations, and a conspiracy stretching across thousands of years.
