Synopsis

CAN A DRUG ADDICT STOP AN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FROM DESTROYING THE WORLD?

Sophie's life is a mess. She has a history of poor choices in men, and she is addicted to opiates. Her ambition to write software has gone entirely off the rails until she finds herself lost in an icy rainstorm in a bad part of town.

Things improve for Sophie, but then a hacking job for one of her mentor's clients results in a deadly attack. Finding out who or what was responsible and seeking revenge becomes her primary motive.

Sophie must struggle with her addiction and attacks from unexpected sources to reach her goal. Along the way, she discovers that things are far more complex than they first appeared and her attempts to defend herself unexpectedly change the entire world.

Review

"5 out of 5 stars Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase
Excellent story that contains a realistic look at where our technology could be headed. The writing is strong and articulate while fully immersing the reader in the story. Grab this book."

"Second Review: 5.0 out of 5 stars A masterful vision well-realized. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Sometimes we get ideas, simple ones, that in actualization are difficult. I think this story is of one such overarching idea, but executed well.  I don't want to give away the big idea, but the bulk of the story builds a long sort of mythology to it, culminating in the battle with the BBEG. The last bit of the story ties it all in together, using the story as a springboard for the grand idea. There were some slowish bits, especially the first three chapters or so before the actual plot really reared it's head. Once that happened, the story runs full tilt toward the climax. Then the magic happens."
