Synopsis

One night, the stars vanish behind a mysterious barrier that encases the Earth, and billions of years begin to pass outside while only decades pass within. As the sun ages toward supernova, Tyler Dupree and his childhood friends — the brilliant twins Jason and Diane Lawton — seek answers to the Spin and a way to save humanity.
