We’re all missing something. Something we can never find even though we keep on searching. Fourteen-year-old Victor misses his brother Fred, who is unconscious at the hospital, after a mysterious accident at home.
Since he can’t make up for this absence any other way, Victor looks for his brother in the traces that he left behind: Fred’s four best friends, his incomplete book and comic collections, role-playing games and even a dark matter anomaly detected by their parents (both physicists). But did he ever really know his brother?
In exploring that beloved figure, Victor also learns something about himself.
A plot that brings together thrills, action and role-playing games.
