br. Lo chiamano Oltre. Alcuni sono appena arrivati in quel mondo così simile al nostro eppure così diverso. Altri invece sono lì da secoli e sono ormai indifferenti alla perenne coltre di nubi che nasconde il sole e all'atmosfera cupa che li circonda. Ma ognuno di loro condivide lo stesso destino: dopo essere morti, sono stati condannati per l'eternità. Sia che abbiano scritto a caratteri di fuoco il loro nome nel grande libro della Storia - tiranni sanguinari, sovrani spietati, criminali di guerra - sia che nel corso della loro oscura esistenza si siano macchiati di colpe incancellabili, adesso sono tutti relegati in quel luogo maledetto. Tutti, tranne John Camp. Lui è "vivo", ed è lì per sua scelta. Perché ha giurato di salvare la donna che ama. Durante un audace esperimento di fisica delle particelle, la dottoressa Emily Loughty è scomparsa nel nulla e, quando si è deciso di ripetere il procedimento per capire cosa fosse successo, John si è posizionato nel punto esatto in cui lei era sparita e... in un attimo è stato catapultato nel mondo chiamato Oltre. E ora deve affrontare il male assoluto per ritrovare Emily e riportarla indietro. Ma il tempo a sua disposizione è poco, e tutti e due rischiano di rimanere per sempre prigionieri nella terra dei Dannati...
