Inhaltsangabe

A fatal diagnosis. An unscrupulous scientist. A deep conspiracy.

Eleanor Burton created the new internet satellite system. But she has just weeks to live. After a friend performs an illegal brain scan, she wakes to find she is now a virtual human, a rogue program running on a satellite she designed. Can she defeat the covert plot to control the world’s data without being deleted or bringing harm to her family?
“The novel succeeds both as a character study of a digital being and as a techno-thriller. A post-human entity proves to be the most relatable character in this engaging cyberthriller.” —Kirkus Reviews

Winner of the 2026 Independent Publishers Book Awards silver medal for Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror eBook

Part love letter, part heist, part philosophical duel, this novel follows a woman who refuses to be someone else’s property. Will appeal to fans of Permutation City (Greg Egan), The Peripheral (William Gibson), The Lifecycle of Software Objects (Ted Chiang), The Circle (Dave Eggers), and Altered Carbon (Richard K. Morgan).
