t's a cold Alaskan night. Inside a dimly lit cathedral, Dr. Grayson Lange, a surgeon with a dark past and a scarred face, stands motionless outside a confessional. Trapped inside, Father Dracule experiences horrific hallucinations and dies of terror.
Detective Eddie Vaugner gets the case. He has his own scars. A car accident killed his wife and took his leg. His eleven-year-old son Daniel barely survived leukemia and lives under the shadow of relapse.
To Eddie, the evidence points to murder. A door kicked through from the inside, as if something held it closed. Surveillance footage shows a ten-second time glitch. The priest's autopsy reveals cellular damage that medical examiner Rebecca Raven and other experts cannot explain.
More victims die, each linked to Lange. Each death has a medical explanation, but Eddie's gut won't let it go. He knows Lange is responsible and finds himself grasping at a theory he barely understands or believes: quantum entanglement. But there's no way he can take that to a D.A. or even his supervisor.
And when Lange performs a routine procedure on Daniel, the boy forms a bond with the murder suspect. Inexplicably, Eddie finds himself accepting-even grateful-that Lange is his son's surgeon. There may be more important things than solving a murder.
THE GOD OF TOMORROW explores the boundaries between science and the supernatural, justice and revenge-where the line between miracle and murder exists in superposition. It is also a love story. Between a man and a woman. And a father and his son.
