| Publisher Description: By 2084, A.I. has made the human workforce obsolete. On our hot, crowded planet populated by billions of environmental refugees and a tiny minority of the ultra-rich, an Anomaly Detection System and a terrifying propaganda machine ensure everyone behaves within prescribed norms. Adam Neuronine, a twenty-year-old video blogger, dreams for the chance to enter the hurricane-proof Manhattan Dome, where he could experience real, not virtual, luxury for the first time. But his dreams are also haunted by memories that are not his own. With the help of a brilliant young hacktivist named Olivia Blackstone, Adam soon discovers a mind-bending personal connection to SINE, the super-intelligent digitized mind that secretly rules the world through the Anomaly Detection System. Now on the run from SINE's Anomaly Police, Adam has only days to learn how to orchestrate the immense power within him to prevent SINE from executing its horrific plan for permanent terrestrial order. |
