Lowell Gant is a quality assurance technician working the late shift at a high-security aerospace optics laboratory. His job is to inspect the interior coating of the "Calibration Sphere," a massive, 50-foot chamber coated entirely in a proprietary carbon-nanotube material designed to absorb 99.99% of all visible light. Inside this sphere, without lights, there is zero depth perception-only a terrifying sensory void where the human mind hallucinates from the absolute darkness.
The terror begins when the heavy, soundproof airlock door violently slams shut, and the main halogen lights are cut. Lowell is plunged into an abyss so dark he cannot see his own hand. Using the dying glow of his smartwatch, he makes a horrific discovery on the catwalk beneath him: the brutally murdered body of the lead scientist. Worse, Lowell realizes the killer is still locked inside the pitch-black sphere with him. And the killer is wearing advanced military-grade thermal goggles.
Hunted in total darkness by a corporate saboteur who can see his every move, Lowell realizes the terrifying endgame: the killer is waiting for the facility's automated systems to initiate the "Solar Flash" calibration-a blinding burst of light meant to simulate the sun in deep space, which will bake Lowell alive. Unable to outrun his pursuer, Lowell must use his intimate knowledge of the fragile nanomaterial to his advantage. Crawling in the dark, he must carve a reflective trap into the ultra-black walls before the lethal flash triggers, turning a lightless tomb into a brilliant and deadly weapon.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
