'Brilliant' – Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher series. Now a major Apple TV+ series starring Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly. Jason Dessen has been abducted. His life has been stolen. To get it back, he will go on a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could have possibly imagined. Dark Matter is a relentlessly surprising alternate-universe sci-fi thriller from Blake Crouch. 'Are you happy in your life?' Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious. Before he awakes to find himself strapped to a gurney, surrounded by strangers in hazmat suits. Before the man he's never met smiles down at him and says, 'Welcome back.' In this world he's woken up to, Jason's life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor, but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible. In this other life, Jason has created a box. Transport into infinite alternate universes – every possible outcome of his life, one behind each door. In this other life, Jason chose a door. And he stole the life he wanted. If Jason Dessen wants his life back, he will have to find it among infinite possibilities. And he will have to battle a terrifying, seemingly unbeatable foe: himself. From the author of the bestselling Wayward Pines trilogy, Dark Matter is sweeping and intimate, mind-bendingly strange and profoundly human. Perfect for fans of Stranger Things and Ready Player One.

Others think they’re trapped in an unfathomable experiment. Everyone secretly dreams of leaving, but those who dare face a terrifying surprise. As sheriff, Ethan Burke is tasked with enforcing the town’s laws, and he’s one of the few entrusted with the truth – even though, for all his knowledge, he’s as much a prisoner of Wayward Pines as anyone else.

The second novel in Blake Crouch’s blockbuster series, Wayward delves deeper into the irresistible mysteries and horrors of this perfect little town, even as it asks what it means to live with secrets – and what price we’ll pay for the truth.

"Er du lykkelig i dit liv?". Det er det sidste spørgsmål, Jason Dessen hører, inden han mister bevidstheden. Inden han vågner fastspændt, omringet af folk i sikkerhedsdragter. Inden en fremmed bøjer sig over ham og siger: "Velkommen tilbage". Jason er vågnet i en verden, han ikke kan genkende. Hans kone er ikke hans kone. Hans søn er aldrig blevet født. Og han er ikke længere fysiklærer, men et hyldet geni, der har opnået noget utroligt. Noget alle troede var umuligt. Er det denne verden eller den anden, som er en drøm? Hvor er hans familie? Det bliver begyndelsen på en forunderlig og forfærdelig rejse – én, der stiller ham ansigt til ansigt med de mørkeste sider. Dark Matter er en spektakulær og overraskende thriller om valg og forsømte muligheder, og om hvor langt vi er villige til at gå i jagten på det liv, vi drømmer om. Den er blevet en bestseller i USA, er solgt til udgivelse i over 20 lande, og forfatteren, amerikanske Blake Crouch, arbejder pt på manuskriptet til filmatiseringen af thrilleren.
