"A smart, edgy, and crisply paced cyberthriller that effortlessly blends its big themes with explosive action."— Kirkus Reviews
Nathan Carter has a steady career, a marriage of twenty years, and a run of good luck he's never thought to question.
When a work AI refuses a simple command and a stranger tells him his life has been managed, the surface cracks. What's underneath is impossible to unsee, and Nathan has a choice to make: accept the life he was handed, or risk everything to live a life of his own.
"Emotional depth of this sort isn't always a part of dystopian fiction... executed so deftly in a punchy and no-nonsense style." — Kirkus Reviews
