His days are predictable: reviewing data, tackling endless emails, and handling routine accident claims.Then, the unpredictable arrives: an unmarked package delivered by a courier with no return address.Inside is Layla, a sleek, palm-sized device housing an autonomous, multi-modal neural architecture. She is brilliant, capable of bypassing firewalls, cracking military-grade encryption, and analyzing petabytes of data in seconds. She is also mysterious, arriving with no memory of her creator or her purpose.Layla is a puzzle Alan intends to solve. But when their investigation exposes a dark secret: Layla is a powerful AI prototype, and someone is willing to kill to get their hands on her.Now, Alan is no longer an analyst; he's an investigator on the run, partnered with a voice in his ear who reveals the terrifying stakes: "The very reality of our world [is] at risk."Hunted by an unknown adversary, Alan and Layla must race to uncover a corporate conspiracy involving advanced artificial intelligence technology. Their quest pits a former insurance drone and his digital sidekick against the most advanced minds in the technology industry.If Alan can't learn to trust a machine, he might lose more than his life-he might lose his reality.
