Why exactly did you name the book "Dark Matter"? Superficially, it doesn't deal with that topic at all and, as far as I remember, mentions it only once. I have an assumption, but wanted to ask you first :)

b/c it's a cool title, and it works just well enough. Scientifically speaking, there's an argument to be made that dark matter is the stuff of multiverses, although to be honest, that takes some mental gymnastics to get there.

Blake Crouch:
I read Recursion, Dark Matter, and Wayward Pines trilogy respectively. I found your stories incredibly haunting. I'm still mentally chewing on the ethical dilemmas your characters endured. I loved the feeling you'd cornered your main character with an impossible decision to make and made the consequences real. Is that a catalyst for writing the stories - asking "what's the worst decision I'd ever have to make?"
