One Grain of Sand by Poet and Author David Somerfleck
One Grain of Sand

“One Grain of Sand” by David Somerfleck is a speculative novel set in a climate-ravaged America where democracy has crumbled under corporate rule and engineered inequality.

Noah Harpster, a pickpocket sentenced to a brutal prison system, volunteers for a dangerous experimental procedure—one that could kill him, maim him, or grant him a second chance.

Emerging into a world fractured by failed genetic experiments and weaponized media, Noah finds himself entangled with a resistance movement branded as terrorism.

Guided by a surrogate father, falling for a visionary climatologist, and bonded to an exosuit that grants access to every signal, screen, and voice on Earth, Noah is forced to confront the machinery of power itself.

In a nation where rebellion is criminal and truth is controlled, he must decide: is he just one grain of sand in the giant hourglass of life—or the one grain of sand that brings the gears of society’s machinations grinding to a halt?
