Coles The Signal from Room 9: A Near-Future Mystery About a Disappearing Scientist, Corrupted Data, and a Message Nobody Sent at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
A missing scientist. A sealed laboratory. A signal that should not exist.
When systems analyst Mara Venn is called to investigate a corrupted data event inside the near-future Helio Systems research complex, she expects a technical failure. Instead, she finds a locked corridor, a vanished scientist, and a final transmission that was never officially sent.
Room 9 was supposed to be empty.
The records say Dr. Elias Vance left the building. The security footage says otherwise. The network logs have been rewritten, the evidence is fragmenting in real time, and the only clue left behind is a pulsing signal buried inside corrupted civic data — a message no human claims to have sent.
As Mara follows the trail through sealed labs, false identities, and a city infrastructure project built on dangerous secrets, she realizes the disappearance is only the beginning. Someone inside the system is hiding the truth. Something inside the data is trying to reveal it.
The Signal from Room 9 is a near-future science-fiction mystery about a disappearing scientist, corrupted evidence, institutional secrets, and a message that may change everything.
