Beschreibung

On one of those days that herald the arrival of summer, with the sky torn apart by thunderclaps, a procession of umbrellas tossed by gusts of wind winds itsway along the central avenue of Milan's Cimitero Maggiore. Margherita, Victoria, Agata and Annalisa, devastated by grief, mourn the death of young Edmond. A common destiny and unspeakable secrets bind the four women in an indissoluble way, upsetting the lives of their respective families in an alternation of events that whirl backwards in time between Milan, Paris and New York. Digging deep into their memories, they will discover emotions linked to unspoken motherhood, fought and experienced at different times, starting with the student protests of 1968. The discovery of old letters will reveal a shocking secret that could destroy the family. How much can a letter help us to reconcile with life?

    David Knight has been plagued by dreams his entire life, only to have all memory of them vanish when he awakens. Now the dreams are coming with more frequency, and they seem to be drawing him to the Amazon.
    A scientist with a PhD in ichthyology and a dedication to learning all he can about lungfish, whose existence dates back to the Devonian era, David is determined to see what the Amazon holds. His hopes seem about to be answered when Dr. Carlos Avila contacts him. It seems the Brazilian archeologist discovered the remains of a previously undiscovered species on a tributary of the Amazon, and he'd like nothing better than for David to join the expedition to see if more of the creature can be found. 
    Of course David leaps at the opportunity and flies to Pesadelo Bay to join the mismatched team. Once there, he discovers not only does Dr. Avila have his own agenda, but a former conquest as well as a friend who'd saved his life years before are part of the team and are engaged to be married. 
    Meanwhile, the need to sail up the Amazon to find what ... or who ... is calling him there has become more and more pressing, and David must decide which is the most important -- learning what Dr. Avila really is searching for, or finding the answer to his dreams?

    Dark Matter meets HBO’s “The Last of Us” in this apocalyptic tale of humanity’s fight against a quickly spreading bacterial infection that turns people into possessed followers of the mysterious “Collective.” 
    Olivia Scott once had a strange ability: she could glimpse echoes of high-emotion events that had taken place nearby. As a child, those visions terrified her. Now, these long-forgotten gifts might be the only thing standing between survival and annihilation. 
    When Liv’s brother Bobby is arrested for murder, she must reclaim the power she once buried if she hopes to prove his innocence. With the help of two scientists, she makes a stunning discovery: bacteria can store memories of the world around them and transmit those memories directly into the human brain. 
    Humans, made of trillions of bacteria, are the perfect hosts for this microscopic invasion. A military state takes control, while scientists search for the bacteria's origins at its epicenter, the city of Wexberg. 
    But the deeper they dig, the more disturbing the truth becomes. 
    Because the bacteria aren’t just recording human history. They’re learning to control it. 
    Can Liv’s visions save humankind before they fall prey to the hivemind of The Collective?
