Physicist Rhoda Mollo has been consigned to the fringes of what can just about be called respectable science, but even there her work is seen as more heretical than theoretical. But strange results from the world’s largest atom smasher threaten to put her center stage, and in doing so unwittingly expose an Earth shattering discovery being kept secret from the world. Those in possession of that secret seek to keep attention away from Rhoda by any means, only to find that she is likely a solution to a pressing problem—what is it that they have found, and why do the omnipotent organisation known as the Veil want it?
