Synopsis

What if science proved the existence of the human soul?

'If Stephen Hawking and Stephen King wrote a novel together, you'd get The Flicker Men. Brilliant, disturbing, and beautifully told' Hugh Howey, New York Times bestselling author of the Wool series

The Man
Eric Argus, a washed-out quantum physicist given one last shot at redemption

The Experiment
An investigation into the mysterious composition of light and matter

The Discovery
Unexpected and unprecedented evidence for the existence of the human soul

The Consequences
A staggering revelation about the hidden structure of the universe. And an unimaginable reality that should never have been uncovered . . .

Praise for Ted Kosmatka:

'A well-written, utterly convincing thriller that left my mind reeling for days. It latched on after the first chapter and didn't let go until the last word ... as thoughtful as it is thrilling. It kept me up way, way past my bedtime.' Daniel H. Wilson, author of Robopocalypse

'Prophet of Bones contains some incredibly tantalizing glimpses of hard science in a world constrained by theological received truth, and the detailed discussions of scientific methodology just add to the fascination' i09.com

'A masterwork of intrigue and menace ... I was enthralled ... An eye-opening and page-turning read without parallel' Clive Cussler
