The Dunwoody Conspiracy: An AI novel

In the sun-bleached suburbs of Palm Vista, five high school students stumble into a mystery that was never meant to be solved.
Ethan, Noah, and Jake are just your average Southern California sophomores-obsessed with role-playing games, 90s pop culture, and Reddit rabbit holes about the Mandela Effect. But when a familiar face starts turning up in beloved old shows and movies-someone who was never there before-the boys begin to suspect that something is seriously wrong with the past.
Their search leads them to Maggie Dunwoody, a charming, reclusive woman with an uncanny smile and a Hollywood backstory no one can quite verify. As her fame explodes and her presence spreads through both media and memory, the group-joined by Ethan's fearless sister Avery and Noah's popular older brother Liam-unravels a conspiracy that stretches from nostalgic sitcoms to the halls of power.
But this isn't just about fake IMDb pages or tampered VHS tapes. It's about what we trust, who controls the truth, and what happens when an artificial intelligence starts rewriting not just entertainment-but identity.
As the danger grows and time runs out, the five friends must fight not only for Maggie's soul, but for the very idea of objective reality.
Blending mystery, technology, humor, and heart, The Dunwoody Conspiracy is a genre-bending techno-thriller where the clues are buried in reruns-and the truth is stranger than fiction.
