What if saving a life came with a permanent plus-one?
Celeportation is the greatest medical breakthrough of the century-allowing ordinary people to transmit life-saving biochemicals across any distance. No travel. No surgery. Just press a button and be a hero.
Side effects may include: dizziness, mild nausea, and an inexplicable metaphysical bond with a complete stranger.
They call it the Closer.
When Larimer Knowles undergoes the procedure, he's just looking to earn a bit of cash. Instead, he's pulled into a cross-country pursuit of the very patient he saved-someone who may not want to be found. Joined by his fiercely loyal best friend and a modern-day Sherpa who knows how to navigate the Closer's strange terrain, Larimer sets out on a relentless road trip that blurs the line between science and the supernatural.
A wry fusion of science fiction, mystery, and road-trip thriller, this novel explores the cost of connection in a world where even your own chemistry can betray you-and where saving someone's life may be the least complicated part of your week.
