As a relentless storm batters the secluded Ashford estate, veteran security guard Jack Reeves settles into what should be another uneventful overnight assignment. Eight years in private security have taught him to distrust silence and weather alike; rain masks footsteps, drowns out alarms, and gives cover to those patient enough to wait for the right moment. Alone in the sprawling, empty mansion while its wealthy owners vacation overseas, Jack conducts his routine patrols amid darkened hallways, antique furnishings, and the quiet weight of inherited money.

In 2007, the Center for Automation in Nanobiotech (CAN) outlined the hardware and software platforms that would one day allow robots smaller than human cells to make medical diagnoses, conduct repairs, and even self-propagate. In the same year, the CBS network re-aired a program about the effects of propranolol on sufferers of extreme trauma.

All they know is that he comes into their cafe at the same time every morning and stares at the same chair at the same table. They know he's strange. They know he interrupts their breakfast with a cold blast of air as he hovers in the doorway, mustering the courage to confront a piece of furniture.
