Extension 214 is supposed to be dead. Yet it lights up to receive emergency calls twenty-four hours before they happen. Helena Duarte, an interpreter at an emergency-services call center in Rio de Janeiro, hears a voice broken by noise, accents, and missing words. When more calls confirm the impossible, she begins using the future to stop the violence. Then she recognizes the next voice: her daughter's. Helena and L via have one day to find out who turned vulnerable people's data into targets, and whether a fragment on a severed line was a warning, an order, or a dangerous mistake in listening. In contemporary Rio de Janeiro, broad avenues and glass towers give way to places where the city meets the forest. *The Calls from Tomorrow* is a psychological thriller about language, surveillance, and the price of trying to control what has not happened yet.
