In 2029, domestic terrorists created a national water crisis in what became known as the Aquifer Attacks.
In the years that followed, Citizens increasing cared less about their freedom of privacy. They cared about surviving, so most gave up their stories to the Net.
By 2041, the vibrations of interconnectivity had shifted to the borders around fresh water and the New Cities were born...they were safe, secure and self-sustaining.
Shaun Winston hated everything about the Net...and virtual reality...and ClearGlasses. He had plenty of fresh water. He lived in Marlinton along the West Virginia Greenbrier and was about to turn eighteen. He'd be able to make his own choices and the New City life wasn't up for consideration.
But that all changed when he found his neighbor, the mysterious scientist, Dr. One, dead.
Now, Shaun must find the doctor's niece who works as a computer scientist at the Green Bank Observatory. He'll travel with her to New Pitt where the Suspicious Society is the accepted way of life, to reveal the real reason for Dr. One's murder and change Shaun in ways he could never have imagined.
Travel 25 years into the future with Dr. One in a new novel by West Virginia's science fiction thriller novelist.
Become a part of Shaun's Story. Read Dr. One and you'll never look at tomorrow the same way again.
