Publisher's Synopsis
When Kiel Rowe is discovered unconscious on the edge of a frozen wasteland-no memory, no past, and a strange symbol alive under his skin-his return is treated as a miracle. But he knows something is wrong.
The facility where he wakes feels too clean. The people too rehearsed.
And the encrypted flash drive sewn into his clothes holds only one message:
You are not the first. You were never supposed to wake up.
As Kiel unravels layers of forgotten identities, hallucinated timelines, and ancient symbols that speak to his mind, he uncovers The Archive-a vast machine built to simulate, loop, and control human consciousness.
He's lived hundreds of lives.
He's starting to remember all of them.
And something deep in the system wants him erased.
With time folding, reality splintering, and other versions of himself hunting him, Kiel must unlock the truth before the Archive consumes what's left of his soul.
For fans of Inception, Severance, and Dark, The Archive is a genre-breaking sci-fi thriller about identity, memory, and the terrifying price of artificial immortality.
- "You were never meant to wake up."
- "The Archive remembers what you forget."
- "Every version of you is still alive-some of them are angry."
