A new metaphysical phenomenon brings together a researcher and her new patient for a thrilling paranormal romantic experience.
Dr. Nadia Markoff leads the scientific community in the study of a new metaphysical phenomenon known as Drifting. It is a form of astral projection that can see into the recent past, present, and future of an individual and has become a hot topic in the world of science. Drifters, as she calls them, are able to project their consciousness elsewhere while they sleep.
After an unexpected incident occurs during her live demonstration, she meets Thomas, a young and handsome walking contradiction to all the research results she had prided herself in. What started as a paranormal romance quickly escalates into thrilling suspense as a new movement, called the “anti-drifters”, starts riots endangering everything Nadia has worked hard on.
When Nadia finds her attraction to Thomas is much stronger than it should be, she must decide on what’s more important — her research or her heart?
Excerpt
“Let’s just get you seated, Dr. Markoff,” said Henry. “You look like a seasick sailor right about now. We can’t have you getting sick on us, now.”
“Something with the monitoring system,” said Nadia as she continued to ramble. “Maybe it was taking in too much information at once. Is Mr. Russo okay?”
“He’s waking up though acting incoherent,” said one of the assistants. “We’re taking him to a quiet room so he can find himself once again.”
Nadia nodded in agreeance as Henry helped her sit down on one of the chairs backstage. “Yes, do that,” she said with a grunt as she sat down and rubbed her temple. “I think… I think he targeted me.”
Henry curiously knelt down next to her. “Do drifters usually cause mental duress on the people they’ve connected with?” he asked.
“No, usually a drifter simply observes. And the information transferred from the connection is like nothing more than a simple touch of a finger to a shoulder, but this…” she rubbed both parts of her temple and looked back at Henry. “He repeated the same words my fiance said to me just moments before he died. That is not something anyone else but I know.”
