Own the seconds.
In 2035, as the machines race toward a Singularity, Dr. Michael Lawson, ninety-four, reads on his porch on Mobile Bay that a machine has helped design its own successor. His children, Larry and Laura, buy a failing watch company, the maker of the watch his mother bought him with egg money in 1959, and rename it TymeX. SpaceX owns the meters. TymeX means to own the seconds.
The night before he dies, at a hundred, Lawson draws one last chart: Space, Time and Mind rising from one dot. Larry's twins, bold Mark and careful Anita, take up that chart with MindSpanX™ and fly Ladybug, one of the first Mindships, a ship that folds Space by thinking. Every fold costs power, never quite reaches instant, and carries them farther back in Time, toward the Minds that ruled the early universe. Meanwhile a tycoon and a Russian spymaster are building a rival Mind from a message in eleven-billion-year-old light.
Mindship Dawn is Book Six and the closing chapter of the Dual Mode series. It stands on its own.
