Rudolph “Rudy” Dersch is the newly minted CEO of the world’s largest, multi-trillion-dollar corporate conglomerate. But the job comes with an unexpected twist—an invitation to join the Consortium, a small, secretive group of global elites who effectively decide what’s best for the rest of humanity. How does Rudy’s struggle to reconcile business and family impact the world’s future? And who, if anyone, can break the Consortium’s iron grip on the status quo?

The answer may lie with a renegade physicist, close to unraveling one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. And a headstrong art curator, driven to find the meaning behind her increasingly compelling visions. From a life-changing moment in a crowded Singapore marketplace, to the business end of an assassin’s gun, they face a power beyond any the world has ever seen. To survive, they’ll have to decipher the truth about dark matter—before the Consortium can achieve its ruinous end game.

Michael Dow spent over twenty-five years in corporate America, with a business career that has run the gamut from management consultant to CEO. He has worked in companies ranging from start-up to more than one billion dollars in revenues, and in locations from Washington, D.C., to Saudi Arabia. Dark Matters is his first work of fiction (though competitors have been accusing him of writing fiction for years). Mike was raised in the suburbs of Philadelphia, and received his undergraduate engineering degree from the University of Virginia. He currently lives in Traverse City, Michigan, with his wife and two teenage daughters.

Graham Halstead is a Brooklyn-based actor and voice artist. His voice work includes animation, commercials, and Audie and AudioFile Earphones Award-winning audiobook narration. His work in the theater includes performances in New York, regionally in Washington DC, and internationally in Edinburgh and London. His most recent television work can be seen on AMC.
