Amelia and Jesse thought they had moved on. After the death of their partner, Silas, they threw themselves into their work, determined to put the past behind them. But when strange occurrences and a mysterious photo hint that Silas may still be alive, they are drawn back into a dangerous search for the truth.
Their quest leads them to Silas's secret research and a time machine with powers beyond anything they imagined. As they race to unravel the mysteries of the machine, Amelia and Jesse must confront not only the secrets of the past, but also a powerful enemy determined to control the future.
In a nondescript facility nestled in the suburbs of Dallas, three brilliant young scientists-Silas, Amelia, and Jesse-have achieved the impossible: a machine that travels through time. Their goal is noble: to test new medicines decades in the future, ensuring safer treatments and saving countless lives. But their revolutionary creation, "The Vale Machine," does not go unnoticed. It attracts the attention of two formidable adversaries: a power-obsessed President who sees the machine not as a tool for healing but as a weapon to reshape history in his image, and a fanatical cult that views their work as a blasphemous affront to the natural order. When the first human trial sends Silas Vale on an unexpected and dangerous journey, the trio realizes the immense power they've unleashed. Placed under the watchful eye of the President's invasive security force, Control, they are thrust into a world of surveillance and conspiracy. A glimpse into a terrifying possible future reveals the true stakes of their invention. To fight back, they must form an unlikely alliance with the very people who once opposed them, leading to a final, explosive confrontation to protect the future from a tyrant's grasp.
