BEEN THERE, DONE THAT

He has died seventy-one times. He remembers every one of them.

Pierce Sinclair looks like an ordinary elderly billionaire: reclusive, eccentric, impossible to pin down. He is not ordinary, and he is not, by any proof a genealogist could produce, even the same man twice. Pierce is a reincarnated soul with total, unbroken memory - a mind that has occupied the Yellow Emperor, Hammurabi, Homer, Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, and Alan Turing, along with dozens of forgotten farmers, sailors, and soldiers across more than five thousand years. He dies. He wakes twelve years old, in a new body, in a century he has to relearn - and every single time, he remembers everything.

Across those five thousand years, Pierce has quietly become the richest human being who has ever lived, by a margin too large to publish, hidden behind shell companies and dead-end paperwork that has fooled forensic accountants and historians for three centuries. That secrecy has never been vanity. It has been survival - the only way a man who cannot die has ever kept what he built across the one event that erases every other fortune on Earth.

Now Pierce has a mission that outweighs every empire he has ever run: get humanity off this dying planet before it's too late. In public, a commercial rocket company is racing to build the foothold the world believes is humanity's only shot at the stars. In secret, behind a research building disguised as a longevity clinic, a far stranger project is bending the geometry of spacetime itself - a door instead of a rocket, hiding a truth almost no one is allowed to know exists.

At the center of it all is Pierce's son, Simon, who has carried his father's truth since the night it broke the floor out from under his life - a mortal man who gets one death while his father simply wakes up again, remembering everything, everyone, forever. Simon's four children inherit pieces of an empire whose true purpose has been kept from all of them, and each must decide how much of the truth they can bear, and how much they're willing to keep from the people they love to protect them.

Then a forensic accountant spends fourteen years chasing an impossible pattern through three centuries of financial records - and becomes the seventh person in five thousand years to find Pierce Sinclair by reasoning alone. What the family does with a man clever enough to catch them will decide whether the greatest secret in human history survives long enough to matter.

Been There, Done That is a reincarnation epic and hard science fiction saga in one: an intimate first-person memoir voice that widens into a sweeping, multi-generational thriller about mortality, memory, hidden fortunes, and what a family owes the people it loves when it can never tell them the truth.

Perfect for readers who love:

• Reincarnation and immortal-protagonist science fiction
• Hidden-billionaire and secret-family conspiracy thrillers
• Hard science fiction grounded in real physics and orbital mechanics
• Asteroid-apocalypse and near-future disaster fiction
• Multigenerational family sagas built on old money and inherited secrets

This is a story about what it costs to remember everything, and what it means to love people you will always outlive.
