Perfect for you if...

You enjoy sci-fi thrillers that ground big technological concepts in personal stakes and claustrophobic tension.
You're drawn to stories with neurodivergent protagonists who aren't defined by their difference but by their intelligence and agency.
You like speculative fiction that asks uncomfortable questions about corporate ethics and the price of innovation.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer slow-burn character studies over plot-driven narratives with mounting stakes.
You want hard sci-fi that deeply explains the mechanics of its technology rather than focusing on conspiracy and suspense.
You need books with extensive world-building or expansive settings; this is tightly contained and deliberately claustrophobic.

About this book

Jade Veverka, a tech prodigy, develops a program designed to communicate with her autistic sister. A startup recruits her to investigate broader applications for her technology. While working at the company's Kansas campus, Jade observes disturbing patterns in the nearby town: no children are present, no one appears to be over forty, and residents seem anxious and uncomfortable. After Jade and a co-worker are forced off the road one night, armed guards suddenly occupy their lab and living spaces, claiming to provide protection. Confined to the compound and uncertain what her employers are concealing, Jade worries she is losing control of both her invention and her circumstances. She discovers the danger extends beyond her and her family, with threats emerging from an unexpected source.
