How far would you go to save the person you love? Would you cross time? Would you change your gender? Lindsay wakes up to an empty house and a missing husband. Rob hasn’t just left her; he has erased himself. Driven by the grief of losing their son years ago, Rob has bought a one-way ticket from “Time Tours”—a corporation that sends broken souls to the end of the world. Desperate to bring him back, Lindsay signs a terrifying contract: she sells her physical body to the corporation in exchange for a digital jump to the year 3080. But the future is not what she expected. Lindsay wakes up in the “Valley of Souls” trapped in a strange, lanky male body. And when she finally finds Rob, he is no longer the husband she knew. He is inhabiting the body of a beautiful woman, trying to drown his grief in a digital ocean. Reunited in swapped bodies, the couple must navigate a glitching simulation, a false paradise that promises to return their dead son, and a god-like AI named “The Generator” who collects human tragedies as art. To escape, they must break the code, crash the server, and find a way back to reality—even if it means waking up as fugitives. (A mind-bending, emotional odyssey about grief, the fluidity of the soul, and the systems that try to control us.)
