Away (Volume 1: Beginnings)

Spanning over fifty years, Away (Volume 1: Beginnings) is the story of a government science project whose consequences reverberate through the lives of everyone it touches. Stumbling on a breakthrough that could lead to the instantaneous transportation of people, medicines, food, energy and even information across the globe, quantum physicist Alberto Rys begins a quest to develop the technology to its full potential. He's eventually joined by a team of equally brilliant and idiosyncratic souls drawn to the discovery's nearly limitless promise. As the years progress, they're met with both devastating failure and exhilarating success. However, just as they near their greatest accomplishment, they find themselves suddenly entangled in a web of greed and deceit that ultimately sends Alberto Rys... away.
