Acadia changed everything. Created by Haven Corps, Acadia promises humanity freedom-freedom from hunger, loss, pain, and struggle. But this freedom comes at a cost: the body must be destroyed so the mind can be uploaded.
For Joe Maslow, that cost has reshaped everything he loves. He's watched Acadia transform his town, his family, and his marriage. Now, as the last keeper of the Vault where consciousness are stored, Joe stands guard over what remains of the past as a threat looms on the horizon.
As the world around him begins to come under attack, Joe is forced to choose-between a life rooted in flesh and memory, or a new kind of existence where nothing hurts and nothing is real.
