Book excerpt: Isaac Eckspo is just like any other famous scientist his age. He lives for knowledge and doesn't feel alive unless he's learning. The only thing that Isaac loves more than knowledge is his family. His wife Cynthia, and his daughter, Alisha are his entire world. But, when they mysteriously vanish into thin air, Isaac's brain and will are put to the test as he searches for the person, or being, responsible for his family's disappearance.
