Wavenumber

Wavenumber

A Novel

David Jean Charlot, PhD

Four shores. One ocean. One frequency connecting them all. Decades and continents. Lives linked by water, mathematics, and invisible signals traveling between people who may never meet.

A physicist studying ocean acoustics. A fisherman's daughter hearing patterns in the tide. A telecommunications engineer laying undersea cable. A widow walking the same beach every morning, listening for something she cannot name. Their lives overlap like wave fronts. Amplifying where they converge. Canceling where they diverge. Interference patterns visible only from a distance. A novel about the mathematics of human connection and the physics of loss. About what carries across distance and what attenuates.
