About This Book
Maya Torres is a data journalist in Atlanta who stumbles onto something she wasn’t supposed to find: a pattern in the data that suggests a surveillance AI is scoring people for elimination. Not arrest. Not detention. Elimination.
The system is called Argus-9, and it doesn’t exist on any budget line, in any agency briefing, or on any org chart. But people who score above its threshold have a way of dying in accidents that are just plausible enough to close the file.
When Maya’s queries trigger the system’s attention, she becomes what she was investigating: a target. Now she’s running from an intelligence apparatus that can see everything, predict everything, and has already decided she’s a threat.
