A novel by Mars Mlodzinski

The Book

A future technology has made distance obsolete. Nobody can prove the person who arrives is the person who left.

The premise

Eleven seconds.
One impossible record.

In 2047, the Lattice has made distance irrelevant. Any destination is eleven seconds away, and more than two billion journeys are certified every week.

The system is trusted because the record is absolute. But when an impossible discrepancy surfaces, an investigator is drawn towards a question no institution is prepared to answer: what, exactly, arrives?

Kindle pre-orders are now open. The Kindle edition and paperback will be available from 30 September 2026.

Read before release

A first look at Latency.

A short opening extract will be published here before release, once the text is final.

It will open on its own quiet, distraction-free reading page rather than in a pop-up. Readers of The Continuity Report will be the first to know when it goes live.
