Conrad Lane thought he was just taking a job.
>But there are secrets buried in the sand. Secrets that are both ancient and urgent.
And the people around him aren't who they seem:
A girl who speaks with gods.
A woman with a past she won't explain.
A stranger sent by something higher.
>The world is unraveling, and somehow, Conrad is at the center of it.
He doesn't know why.
>But the Earth below is rumbling and the orbits above are drifting.
And the key to everything may lie in a machine no human was ever meant to fly.
