About this title

Synopsis

If the misery of the poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our institutions, great is our sin. -Charles Darwin

Advanced 3-D printing has replaced agriculture and manufacturing as we know it. AI has made workers obsolete as robots have become smarter and more adaptable than humans.

While new technologies offered the potential to improve lives, now they have become an existential threat to humans.

When Jake Conary wakes up on a vast estate with no recollection of who he is or how he got there, the hunt begins for a vital piece of knowledge to which only he holds the key. Friend and foe scramble to help him recover his memory, but who can he trust? In this strange new world, nothing is as it seems. Every surface is a façade-some that will kill with the ease of a smile.

As each day presents the threat of resetting his progress, Jake must sift through deception to find the truth. And when he uncovers a terrible revelation about the past, it's up to him to do everything in his power to change the future.
