Ikona (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781764345149)

A mysterious Russian Orthodox cross, a holy icon with inexplicable healing power, begins to surface across cities, lifetimes, and fractured timelines. Four strangers find themselves drawn into its field-from the bustle of Sydney, Hong Kong, Atlanta and Berlin to the stark quiet of Siberia's post-apocalyptic tundra. In Atlanta, Kate Davies witnesses the icon's strange effect on a sick child. In Sydney, Finley Minor is haunted by visions of possible futures and the quiet weight of consequence. Jia Li MacPherson, former thief and Shibari performer, holds secrets that powerful forces would kill to keep buried. Wallace Deng Moroz, a monk living a century ahead, clings to visions of a cure in a world where a genetic mutation has nearly ended humanity, and the political landscape is dangerously polarised.

The convergence of these four heroes feels destined, yet it is shaped by choice - and the deeper they move into the cross's resonance, the more the question shifts: Which version of the future will they choose to inhabit? And what must be surrendered to reach it?

IKONA is a visionary novel of shifting realities and inner reckonings-a meditation on time, memory, and healing.
