Author Irv Selman has published a new novel titled 'Hidden in Plain Sight' that combines science fiction, mystery, and human drama to explore profound questions about existence, loss, and what might lie beyond human perception. The book follows Christopher 'Chris' Copper, a gifted individual from Cleveland whose childhood encounter with something unexplainable sparks a lifelong fascination with the stars.
As Chris matures, he experiences significant personal loss, including the death of his wife Emma, whose memory continues to influence his path. His search for meaning eventually leads him to NASA and into Project Threshold, a covert program investigating mysterious signals, potential wormholes, and hidden technologies that challenge humanity's understanding of its place in the universe. The narrative moves from secret underground bases to encounters with forces that defy conventional comprehension, framing Chris's journey as both a scientific investigation and a personal reckoning.
Selman describes the novel as being about more than science fiction. 'Hidden in Plain Sight is more than a science fiction novel,' Selman stated. 'It's about grief, resilience, and our endless human drive to understand what lies beyond the horizon of our perception. The mysteries of the universe aren't always far away—they may be right in front of us.' The book raises enduring questions about what exists beyond our world, what information might be withheld from the public, and how science, faith, and love can intersect.
The novel is positioned for readers who enjoy the works of authors like Michael Crichton, Andy Weir, and Blake Crouch. Published by Woodbridge Publishers, 'Hidden in Plain Sight' is available in paperback, hardback, and eBook formats through major retailers, including Amazon. Selman, known for integrating science, history, and drama into compelling narratives, aims to deliver a story that is both emotionally impactful and thrilling, suggesting that extraordinary realities might exist just beyond ordinary sight.
