Overview

In the wake of a national calamity known only as The Water Event, Brooklyn Tremain launches herself across a shattered America in pursuit of Martin Siriso-the man she loves and the man she refuses to lose. Was he swallowed by the chaos, or is he running from the forces that thrive on catastrophe? Armed only with a cryptic message and fragments of a quantum device Martin helped build, Brooklyn is thrust into a conflict far larger than survival. As she pushes through danger, devotion, and the razor edge between life and death, she discovers that the truth she seeks could tear the world open once more. A modern echo of Isis and Osiris, A WAVE OF BREATH is a love story carved across life, death, and everything in between.
