Telemass Coda
A novella. Cover art by Tomislav Tikulin.
When Matt Hendrick’s wife Mercury is lost while taking a Telemass trip from Mars to Earth, existing in a state neither dead nor alive — but in an ‘indeterminate state’ — he finds himself in an indeterminate state himself, torn between grief and hope. Hendrick had planned to take Mercury and his daughter Samantha on a trip to distant stars, retracing the journey he had made years earlier while attempting to rescue Samantha...
In a bid to distract Hendrick, Samantha persuades him to make the journey anyway, and they embark on a fateful recapitulation of the original voyage. But unbeknownst to Hendrick, Samantha has an agenda of her own — which just might bring about Mercury's salvation.
Telemass Coda is the moving finale to the Telemass Quartet.
