內容簡介 你對自己的人生，感到滿意嗎？改編為電視影集《陰松林》的暢銷作品《松林異境》（The Wayward Pines）三部曲作者布萊克．克勞奇（Blake Crouch），最新科幻驚悚佳作！人生的岔路多如牛毛，想要奮進向前，取捨便是必然！然而，你可曾暗忖，那條未踏上的路，究竟會領你上何處？一名為家庭放棄夢想的物理系教授，一起跨越平行世界的擄人懸案，一場絕無冷場的科幻懸疑之旅，你絕對不能錯過！在社區大學任教的Jason Dessen與太太Daniela，和15歲的兒子過著平穩的生活。然而，對於人生的那一絲悔恨，卻始終揮之不去：Jason曾是個前途大好的年輕物理學家，原可在物理學界發光發熱，遠大的夢想卻在兒子出生後被迫放棄！某日Jason無預警遭蒙面男子綁架，醒來時躺在擔架上，被穿著防護衣的不知名男女圍繞著。他隨即踏入一個似曾相識，卻又詭異得如此不同的平行世界：在那裡，他和Daniela都是單身，也沒有愛的結晶。最令他震驚的是，在這個世界裡，Jason是一位享譽國際的天才物理學家，他年輕時所鑽研的量子力學理論竟被他成功付諸實踐，轉換成為一項能開起無限可能的驚人科技…究竟是誰綁架了Jason，把他帶往這個詭譎的世界，綁匪的目的又為何？而這個世界究竟是真實，還是夢境？為了挖掘真相，與心愛的家人的團聚，Jason必須一次次面對自己內心最黑暗的角落，靠著自己的力量找到那條回家之路…然而，他真的有能力辦得到嗎？'Are you happy in your life?' Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious. Before he wakes to find himself strapped to a gurney, surrounded by strangers in hazmat suits. Before the man he's never met smiles down at him and says, 'Welcome back, my friend.' In this world he's woken up to, Jason's life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor, but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible. Is it this world or the other that's the dream? And even if the home he remembers is real, how can Jason possibly make it back to the family he loves? The answers lie in a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could've imagined - one that will force him to confront the darkest parts of himself even as he battles a terrifying, seemingly unbeatable foe. From the author of the bestselling Wayward Pines trilogy, Dark Matter is a brilliantly plotted tale that is at once sweeping and intimate, mind-bendingly strange and profoundly human - a relentlessly surprising thriller about choices, paths not taken, and how far we'll go to claim the lives we dream of.
