About this audiobook
At four in the morning, in a lab in Mountain View, a quantum computer produces two different records of the same event. Both pass their own checks. They do not agree.
Maya Chen spent ten years building the machine, and the last nine months sleeping in the spare room of the house she shares with the man she built it with. Their daughter, Lila, is in Istanbul, trying to make a life apart from her parents' work.
As Maya and her husband search for the fault, the evidence grows harder to trust. Keeping it private could cost them the chance to understand it. Publishing could cost their colleagues their livelihoods. When Maya asks Lila to come home, her daughter arrives with a book by a sixteenth-century mystic and questions her parents cannot answer.
Two Witnesses is a literary speculative novel about grief, a marriage, and the difficulty of telling the truth when the evidence will not stay still. For listeners of Benjamín Labatut, Richard Powers, and Ian McEwan.
