"Favorably reminiscent of Dave Eggers' The Circle - and more powerful." - Readers' Favorite

"Masterfully executed... almost hypnotic precision... unforgettable, especially due to its shocking
ending." - Feathered Quill Reviews

"A philosophical exercise in determinism." - Reader Views

"To say it was a page turner would be the understatement of the century." - Pacific Book Review Notable Book Selection

Will Fortner is very good at his job. As a data manager for the Choice Institute - a global technology conglomerate that transforms raw information into certainty for the world's most powerful clients - he has learned to read patterns that others cannot see. He has also learned that not everything he sees is necessarily to his clients' advantage. This knowledge has made him wealthy. It has also made him deeply, permanently cynical.

When Will is recruited for a particularly delicate and far more lucrative contracted query, the Institute insists he take on a companion to ensure his stability. Mirai Redwater is clever, forthright, and entirely impossible to read. As Will moves deeper into the entanglements of the Choice Institute's darker architecture, the question that follows him at every step is the same one that defines the novel: is he being supported - or is he being used?

A near-future psychological thriller for readers of Kazuo Ishiguro's "Klara and the Sun", Dave Eggers' "The Circle", and Philip K. Dick. Literary science fiction that does not feel like science fiction - because the world it depicts feels like tomorrow morning.

Advent Blue. Unforgettable.

His first anthology, Remnant, blending science fiction and speculative fiction, saw publication in 2010. In 2012 he followed with Oddities & Entities, a collection spanning the supernatural, paranormal, horror and speculative genres. His third book, Prism, published in 2014, follows a winding road through diverse genres and narrative forms as it explores the human experience. Roland's books have received unanimous critical praise and have been honored with more than a dozen national book awards, including honors from National Indie Excellence, Foreword Reviews, Readers' Favorite, Feathered Quill Reviews and Pacific Book Review. When not immersed in his imagination, Roland can be found at his website, rolandallnach.com, along with a wealth of information about his stories and experiences as an author.
