A Rift in Time
Katarina Volkov
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
The observatory perched on Mount Solara like a lighthouse against the infinite darkness, its copper dome gleaming under the light of twin moons. Dr. Elena Thorne adjusted the massive telescope's focus, her breath forming small clouds in the crisp mountain air. Twenty-eight years of studying the cosmos had taught her that the universe held secrets beyond human comprehension, but nothing had prepared her for what she was about to witness.
"Still no sign of the anomaly, Professor?" Marcus, her research assistant, called from across the platform where he monitored the computer readings.
Elena squinted through the eyepiece, scanning the constellation of Andromeda. For three weeks, their instruments had detected unusual gravitational fluctuations in that sector—ripples in spacetime that defied every known law of physics. The scientific community had dismissed their findings as equipment malfunction, but Elena knew better. Her instincts, honed by years of observation, told her they were on the verge of a groundbreaking discovery.
"Wait," she whispered, her heart suddenly racing. Through the lens, a shimmer appeared in the void—not light, but something far stranger. It was as if reality itself was bending, creating a translucent fold in the fabric of space. "Marcus, come here. Now."
Her assistant hurried over, nearly tripping over a coil of cables in his excitement. "What is it? Did you find—" His words died as Elena stepped aside, allowing him to peer through the telescope.
