Synopsis:
"Edwards has constructed a fast-paced, high-concept narrative grounded in a timely premise about AI and its societal influence" -- Kirkus Reviews
THE WORLD BURNS. SOME WATCH. OTHERS ACT.
In 2045, Miro Jackson, an elite Australian firefighter, discovers the charred remains of a family in a firestorm. Welded to the wealthy farmer's head is the latest tech — augmented reality glasses and MindLink.
His ex-cop instincts are triggered.
FBI Special Agent Cat Herrera hacks a drug lord's personal AI, or Agentic Other, and cracks the case. Now she must evaluate the cutting-edge, power-hungry technology for the agency.
Then a spate of suspicious deaths sends Cat and Rose, her new digital partner, on the trail of a potential serial killer.
Together, Miro, Cat, and Rose uncover a political conspiracy that hides an explosive truth about Agentic's supply chain. As the stakes escalate, their hunt takes them from the fire-scorched hills of California to a nuclear-powered Atlanta data centre and deep into the Amazon rainforest.
"A page-turner of a climate thriller weaving bleeding-edge technology, an unsettling crime story, and a magnetic romance into an inventive and intoxicating novel. Once Edwards locks in, it’s hard to put this book down. I wish there were more climate thrillers like this one." -- Lee Schneider, author of Surrender, Resist, and Liberation and host of the Future Lab Podcast
