Century Rain: A Thriller Across Time

Three hundred years in the future, Verity Auger, an archaeologist specializing in the exploration of post-Nanocaust Earth, faces redemption after a disastrous field trip. Her expertise becomes invaluable for a perilous mission.

A backdoor into an unstable alien transit system reveals an astonishing discovery: mid-twentieth-century Earth, perfectly preserved. Is it a window into the past, a simulation, or something far more enigmatic?
