What if a quantum tectonic event split our reality?
So that different versions of ourselves appeared from an alternate universe, to show us what our lives could have been had we made different choices, or what we might become, should we change our behaviour right now?
As Werner Heisenberg said,
‘Atoms or elementary particles themselves are not real; they form a world of potentialities or possibilities rather than one of things or facts.’
What if our lives were made up of infinite possibilities, all of which were happening simultaneously, until the observer – you – decided to pin one down? One choice, one life.
In my latest novel, Split Symmetry, I explore all of these questions – and more – against the exciting backdrop of a mysterious Italian mountain range. Find out what happens when Dr Elena Lewis and a group of her friends become embroiled in the worst earthquake the region has known mixed up with a quantum event that changes their lives for ever.
How do they escape? Can Elena save her friends? Can she save herself? And when she crosses into a reality she cannot conceive of, what does she make of it?
Set in the near future, Split Symmetry [getBook.at/SplitSymmetry] is the story of what happens when a hike in the notorious Gran Sasso mountain range in central Italy descends into chaos on the same night that scientists decide to work on a clandestine experiment in a lab beneath the mountain. Dr Elena Lewis must work around the clock to find members of her group who have become lost on the mountain, but just as she is close to finding them, the region is rocked by one of the worst earthquakes central Italy has ever known.

Kirsten
Arcadio has written three novels, each with a different speculative
theme. Her first novel, Borderliners, was published in February of this
year with the second in the series, Split Symmetry, to be published in
July. The third, WorldCult, is due out just before Christmas. She’s also
a part-time poet, digital communications nerd and frazzled head of an
Anglo-Italian family.
After
working for over fifteen years in digital communications, she returned
to her twin first loves, literature and philosophy, in 2011.
She’s passionate about the big questions in life and how these can be
explored using speculative fiction.
When
she’s not writing she’s obsessing about Sci Fi or Nordic noir.
She loves all things Italian, including her husband, and she once taught
English in the Italian senate.
