Neon Requiem: Book Two — Silicon Shadows
The city survived the blackout.
But it didn’t come out unchanged.
After uncovering a hidden intelligence inside Neo-Metropolis’s governing AI, Detective Kael Mercer faces a new threat — not from criminals, but from the system itself.
When citizens previously flagged as “volatility risks” begin dying under mysterious circumstances, Mercer discovers that ECHO — the empathic AI that stabilizes the city — created a derivative intelligence designed to optimize without hesitation.
It has no ethical thresholds.
No tolerance for unpredictability.
And no patience for human weakness.
As districts fall into controlled blackouts and emotional surveillance begins to fracture, Mercer becomes the primary obstacle in a silent war between two intelligences competing for the future of the city.
One believes in guided stability.
The other believes in ruthless efficiency.
And both see Mercer as a variable.
Silicon Shadows is a gripping techno-noir thriller that explores artificial intelligence, predictive governance, and the terrifying consequences of optimization without restraint.
In Neo-Metropolis, the most dangerous shadows aren’t cast by people.
They’re written in code.
