Synopsis
Morgan Reed is Pinnacle Software's "bug whisperer" — the developer who can spot anomalies that everyone else misses. When a routine debugging session reveals strange patterns hidden in the company's blockbuster game Realm Quest, she uncovers breadcrumbs leading to a decade-old mystery.
The trail points to Richard Winters, a brilliant programmer whose contributions have been systematically erased from the company's history. His revolutionary adaptive algorithm made millions for Pinnacle—just before his suspicious "hiking accident" ten years ago.
As Morgan digs deeper, she discovers her mentor and the company's CEO might be hiding a deadly secret: Richard's technology hasn't just been powering a game—it's been weaponized into "Project Oracle," a system designed to manipulate human behavior on a massive scale.
With unlikely allies including Richard's son, a librarian with secrets of her own, and the café owner who might have been Richard's lover, Morgan races to expose the truth. But Pinnacle's executives have already proven they'll do anything to protect their secrets—including murder.
In this tech industry thriller where the lines of code are as twisted as the lies protecting them, Morgan must play the ultimate game of digital chess before she becomes the next victim.
Some bugs aren't meant to be fixed. Some secrets aren't meant to stay buried.
