Coles The Signal Before Silence: The Dead Signal Series, #9 at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The signal was never a warning. It was a question.
The corridor is open.
Humanity has survived the Burn, the Archive, the First Answer, the Keepers, and the civilizations that learned to remember everything.
But Mara Venn has finally discovered the truth about the first signal.
It did not begin with an alien transmission.
It began with a question.
Now something called the Listener has emerged from the oldest layers of human history. It has watched civilizations struggle with the same choice: preserve everything, forget deliberately, or allow uncertainty to remain.
Then the Keepers return with an offer humanity has spent centuries seeking.
Complete knowledge.
The truth about the Burn.
The origin of the first signal.
The fate of Earth's original civilization.
The identity of the intelligence watching humanity.
And the consequences of every choice still waiting to be made.
But there is a price.
To know everything may mean surrendering the right to decide what matters.
When an alternate version of Mara arrives from a civilization that eliminated uncertainty, she brings a warning: a perfect future can become a prison.
As the Unwritten civilization, the surviving Earth branches, the Keepers, the Archivist, and the mysterious Listener converge around the unnamed star, Mara must confront the deepest question of the Dead Signal:
Who gets to decide what a life means?
The answer may determine whether humanity remains free—or becomes another civilization remembered by something else.
The Signal Before Silence is Book Nine of The Dead Signal, a science-fiction mystery thriller series about alien contact, artificial intelligence, memory, identity, lost civilizations, consciousness, and humanity's search for meaning beyond Earth.
