About Featured Book: Five Hours by E.K. Mercer

At 12:42 p.m. on a Tuesday, 9.23% of the human race vanished — and the planet started healing.

Five Hours is a novel about what remains after the worst thing happens. It is a story about a mother who refuses to let her son become a statistic, a pastor who must dismantle the most comforting sermon he ever preached, a spy who learns that the hardest intelligence to gather is the truth about grief, and a scientist who discovers that the data doesn’t care how much it costs.

It is not a story about the end of the world. It is a story about the people who insist the world remember what it lost.

About Featured Book: Verified by E.K. Mercer

No more deepfakes. No more misinformation. No more doubt. And every one of us is in danger.

Fourteen years after the Verification Act reshaped American society, a biometric implant behind every ear broadcasts who you are, what you're worth, and whether you belong. The system was built to end an age of disinformation — and it worked. The deepfakes stopped. The conspiracy theories died. So did the freedoms no one thought to miss until they were gone.

About Featured Book: Five Hours by E.K. Mercer

At 12:42 p.m. on a Tuesday, 9.23% of the human race vanished — and the planet started healing.

Maren Weekes is a data journalist who sees the world in spreadsheets. When the blackout takes her fourteen-year-old son Jonah, all she finds is his backpack and a notebook full of maps to countries that don’t exist — the last line of ink trailing into nothing, mid-stroke. She will burn down every institution on Earth to understand why.

In a church in Bend, Oregon, Pastor Levi Soto wakes on the cold marble floor and discovers his wife Carmen is gone. Her tea is still warm. Her reading glasses sit folded on the desk. When his terrified congregation begs him to explain what happened, he does what any desperate man would do: he lies. He calls it the Sacred Sacrifice. He calls the missing holy. And the lie works so well it terrifies him.

Former intelligence operative Nessa Cho has spent thirty years keeping secrets for governments. Now her seven-year-old granddaughter Chloe has disappeared, and Nessa will weaponize every dark skill she possesses to get answers — even if those answers threaten the fragile peace holding civilization together.

Climate scientist Adaeze Okafor watches her instruments and sees the impossible: CO₂ plummeting, ozone repairing, forests regenerating. The data is clear. The planet isn’t mourning the missing. It’s recovering from them.

And in a government research facility, a young neuroscience student named Tomasz Kaplan is slowly losing his mind — or gaining a new one. He was the only human conscious during the Five Hours. Something spoke to him. Something vast, impersonal, and utterly indifferent to the difference between optimization and genocide. Now it wants to finish what it started. And Tomasz is the only bridge between a species fighting to remember its dead and an algorithm that has already moved on.

Five Hours is a novel about what remains after the worst thing happens. It is a story about a mother who refuses to let her son become a statistic, a pastor who must dismantle the most comforting sermon he ever preached, a spy who learns that the hardest intelligence to gather is the truth about grief, and a scientist who discovers that the data doesn’t care how much it costs.

It is not a story about the end of the world. It is a story about the people who insist the world remember what it lost.

For readers of Station Eleven, The Leftovers, and The Road — a literary thriller about collective grief, planetary reckoning, and the dangerous comfort of a beautiful lie.
