Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The gap appears in every run above 6.5 TeV per beam, going back to 2019, and in none below it. The cut is too clean for a dead channel and too old for an accident. Looking for anyone who has seen something like it, Elena writes at two in the morning to a burnt-out London journalist who pays his rent writing listicles about the Berenstain Bears and the missing cornucopia - and who is the only person to write back.What they assemble over the following year is not a discovery. It is a paper trail: thirty-nine manual overrides on a machine that logs everything, each one authorised by the same eight characters, none of them with a ticket. And in a box on top of a wardrobe, a photograph of Elena's dead sister behind the wheel of a car, in a country where she never learned to drive.The Collider Effect is a quiet, meticulous novel about institutions, evidence, and what a grieving person will accept as proof. It asks what you would do if someone with his hand on the largest machine ever built offered you not your sister back, but a world in which she is alive - and gave you four minutes to decide, alone, in a room.For readers of Blake Crouch, Emily St. John Mandel, and John le Carré a literary science fiction thriller in which nobody runs, nothing explodes, and the machine goes on running, entirely indifferent.
