A mysterious Russian Orthodox cross with inexplicable healing power begins to surface across cities, lifetimes, and fractured timelines, drawing four strangers into its field from Sydney, Hong Kong, Atlanta, and Berlin to the post-apocalyptic tundra of Siberia. As a genetic mutation threatens to end humanity, sex worker and former cult member Kate, visionary Finley, ex-thief Jia Li, and Wallace, a monk living in a post-apocalyptic world a century ahead, must navigate timelines and dark secrets kept by powerful forces. Their destined convergence is shaped by a high-stakes choice: Which version of the future will they stabilize?
