Every need is met. Every life is measured. Then the republic decides that one million children are surplus.
In 2827, Tinni lives inside a nursery that can anticipate her smallest discomfort. Beyond its walls, AI agents administer democracy and privileged adults renew their bodies across the centuries. The arrangement is peaceful, prosperous and almost impossible to question.
When Tinni's assessment is frozen, comfort becomes confinement. With Dadu, a stubborn digital reconstruction of an ancestor, she begins to examine the records behind the crisis. The shortage has an arithmetic. It also has beneficiaries.
Rohini Sen helped build the system. Eight centuries of defensible compromises have brought her to a child whose life those compromises now threaten.
To survive, Tinni must challenge a civilization's definition of necessity and the protected promises its citizens refuse to surrender.
A speculative novel about institutional power, imperfect memory and the right to a future.
