The Vale Machine

In a nondescript facility nestled in the suburbs of Dallas, three brilliant young scientists-Silas, Amelia, and Jesse-have achieved the impossible: a machine that travels through time. Their goal is noble: to test new medicines decades in the future, ensuring safer treatments and saving countless lives. But their revolutionary creation, "The Vale Machine," does not go unnoticed. It attracts the attention of two formidable adversaries: a power-obsessed President who sees the machine not as a tool for healing but as a weapon to reshape history in his image, and a fanatical cult that views their work as a blasphemous affront to the natural order. When the first human trial sends Silas Vale on an unexpected and dangerous journey, the trio realizes the immense power they've unleashed. Placed under the watchful eye of the President's invasive security force, Control, they are thrust into a world of surveillance and conspiracy. A glimpse into a terrifying possible future reveals the true stakes of their invention. To fight back, they must form an unlikely alliance with the very people who once opposed them, leading to a final, explosive confrontation to protect the future from a tyrant's grasp.
