Toby Hale, lead architect of Project Archimedes, has one mission: build a true artificial superintelligence. But as server monoliths hum and the model begins to improvise, his own reality stutters. A wet glass feels like a haptic simulation. A distant rooftop flickers like a low-res video game. A gardener behaves in a perfect, mechanical loop.
One anomaly is a fluke. Three is a dataset.
Increasingly isolated by a terrifying secret that could break his sanity, Toby finds a sole anchor in the fierce, sharp-witted Eliza Shaw, the only person who can see past his own code and into his humanity.
But as global superintelligences awake, a high-stakes digital cold war erupts. Hunted by corporate masters, an omnipresent military apparatus, and a cosmic firewall, Toby and Eliza are trapped in a maze of infinite unreality. Together, they must make one final, world-altering choice.
A techno-thriller about the collapsing boundaries
of reality and the potent power of human choice.
