Two Steps From the Future. Quantum brain - Eduardo Kwiatkowski

Reality is a thin veil. And Julian Reyes has just found the tear.

For Julian, the world speaks in a language no one else hears: the language of probability. Since he was seven years old, a falling die hasn't been a random event, but a question he can answer-if he focuses his will at the exact moment of suspension. What began as a childhood secret has become a sensory nightmare: an avalanche of data, from the rhythm of strangers' heartbeats to the infinite trajectories of moving objects, isolating him from a normal life.

Everything changes when a viral video of an "impossible" soccer goal catches the eye of Aeterna Performance Group. Led by the icy Elisa Vance, Aeterna offers Julian the one thing he craves: control. But in the world of Aeterna, control isn't a gift-it's a weapon.

As a "living quantum measurement instrument," Julian is trained to use the Bias: the power to nudge reality toward a specific outcome. But the universe demands a balance. The cost of altering the world is immediate: every use of the Bias deletes a specific memory. A name, a face, the scent of his mother's kitchen-Julian is an reality-altering weapon that self-destructs with every shot.

Trapped with a subcutaneous tracker and a "biological processor" identity, Julian must find a way to escape before he becomes a ghost in his own body. Because in a world where the future is managed, the only thing left to fight for is the right to live with uncertainty.
