What if everything you've ever experienced was only a signal?
Carter has never truly been alone.
Like every other human on Earth, he has spent his entire life connected to the Stream-a seamless network that links every mind into a shared reality. Every friendship. Every memory. Every adventure. Every moment of his existence has unfolded inside that perfect digital world.
Then an accident severs the connection.
Stranded in a reality he never knew existed, Carter discovers forests instead of simulations, silence instead of constant connection, and a hidden community of people who have lived beyond the reach of the Stream for generations.
But when an impossible structure begins rising from the wilderness-and people start disappearing-Carter uncovers a truth so vast it shatters everything he believed about humanity, civilization, and his own place in the universe.
Now he faces an impossible choice:
Return to the only world he's ever known...
Or fight for one that may never survive.
The Silence Between Signals is a thought-provoking science fiction thriller about technology, freedom, identity, and what it truly means to be human.
I opened one of [Kevin Tumlinson's] novels and immediately was hooked. I mean, he knows what he's doing. A writer who, bless him, knows how it's done.
- Orson Scott Card, Hugo and Nebula Award Winning Author of Ender's Game
Few writers can blend science, history, and sheer suspense the way J. Kevin Tumlinson does. He's a true craftsman of the thriller, and a storyteller with both vision and heart. Every new book is an adventure that will keep you up all night.
- Kevin J. Anderson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dune: House Atreides
