Summary: A fractured mind or a global conspiracy? Uncovering the truth can be hell when nobody believes you… and you can’t even trust yourself. “A fantastic SF thriller with a sincere and important message.” —Kirkus Reviews “A breathtaking, deeply dark alternate-history Earth with complex characters, layered worldbuilding, and twist after twist after twist.”—Julianna Caro, Reedsy Discovery Broken Mirror is the first volume in a queer psychological science fiction saga that looks at the stigma of mental illness and the hellish distrust and alienation that go with it. Victor Eastmore knows someone killed his grandfather, the pioneering scientist Jefferson Eastmore. But Victor, diagnosed with mirror resonance syndrome, has been shunned by Semiautonomous California society. Nobody will believe a Broken Mirror. Now Victor must tread the line between sanity and reclassification—a fate that all but guarantees he’ll lose his freedom. With its self-driving cars, global firearms ban, and cure for cancer, the science fiction world of Broken Mirror may sound like a near-future utopia, but on Resonant Earth, history has taken a few wrong turns. The American Union is a weak and fractious alliance of nations in decline. Europe manipulates its citizens through propaganda. And Asia is reeling from decades of war. Determined to uncover the truth about Jefferson’s murder, pansexual Victor and his trans friend Elena set out on a road trip that takes them across the American Union from Semiautonomous California through the Organized Western States to the Republic of Texas. But Elena is holding something back, and Victor’s condition worsens. Amid shifting geopolitical sands, Broken Mirrors like Victor find themselves at a cyberpunk crossroads: evolve or go extinct.

Summary: To uncover the truth behind a murder, Victor Eastmore must risk his sanity—and set a killer free. In Tortured Echoes, the gripping sequel to Broken Mirror, bioinformatics prodigy Victor Eastmore is finally gaining control over his debilitating mirror resonance syndrome—an affliction that warps his senses and blurs the line between perception and reality. But the mystery of his grandfather’s murder still haunts him, and the path to justice leads to New Venice, a touristy canal town in the Louisiana Territories. There, Victor must confront Samuel Miller, the infamous “patient zero” of MRS and the perpetrator of the Carmichael Massacre. To uncover the truth, Victor must risk unshackling Samuel from Personil, the drug that reins in his madness. Meanwhile, tensions mount as the radical Human Lifers group protests BioScan’s controversial treatments and advocates for a future free from “pharmaceutical enslavement.” Caught between manipulative family members, treacherous allies, and a society on the brink of enforcing brutal policies against the Broken Mirrors, Victor must decide where his loyalty lies. Will he fight for a new vision of justice and community—or be consumed by the very forces that threaten to silence him? Tortured Echoes blends psychological sci-fi, political intrigue, and emotional depth in a thought-provoking tale of identity, power, belonging, and resistance in the Resonant Earth universe.
