Thomas kommt in Shanghai an und findet sich sofort in einer Welt wieder, die größer, schneller und fremder ist als alles, was er kennt. Die Sprache entgleitet ihm. Die Kultur bleibt unverständlich. Doch genau darin beginnt etwas Neues. Zwischen Klassenzimmern, engen Wohnungen und flirrenden Straßen entwickelt sich eine Geschichte über Nähe und Distanz, Macht und Verletzlichkeit. Fluent ist kein einfacher Liebesroman. Es ist eine literarische Erzählung über Identität, Verlangen und die Suche nach einem Platz in einer Welt, die sich ständig entzieht.

Ash is thirty six, far from home, and tired of wanting the one girl he is not allowed to touch. Lucy sits three seats from the aisle in his Tuesday seminar. She says his title like a polite student. He goes home thinking about her anyway. He books a hotel and pays a stranger so he can stop thinking. The stranger is the wrong girl. She sends someone new. The someone new is Lucy. She needs money. He needs her. They tell themselves it is only a transaction. It is not. She has a boyfriend who will never have her. Ash has a job he can lose in one rumor.

Lucy never planned to cheat. Ash never planned to risk everything. She is a 21-year-old Chinese college student with a boyfriend who thinks she spends her evenings studying. He is her 34-year-old American English professor with a girlfriend who believes he is grading papers. For months they only traded dirty videos and late-night messages. They never crossed the line. Until the night they both lied to be alone together in a private hot spring. That night Ash takes Lucy’s virginity in the steaming water while the city continues outside, completely unaware.

What begins as an exchange of ideas spirals into obsession, where every boundary is tested and every desire has consequences.

In the concluding volume of the Project Equilibrium series, the stakes have never been higher. With the government’s resurrection program exposed as a tool of absolute control, families, rebels, and the resurrected themselves stand on the precipice of revolt. Amid the sterile corridors of a government facility and the covert resistance in abandoned safe houses, a group of unlikely heroes races against time. Their mission: to hack the system, reveal the damning secrets buried in encrypted files, and reclaim the power to choose who lives and who dies.

In a world where death can be undone for one deserving soul, nine grieving individuals are brought together by the government’s controversial reanimation program, Project Equilibrium. The program gives them the power to resurrect one of nine victims taken by the same killer, Lucas Rehn, using his life force as payment. Over the course of an emotionally charged week, the group must grapple with the unbearable weight of their decision. Each deliberator brings their own pain, guilt, and love to the table.
