In a city where lineage is quantified and stability is managed by systems, Mara Keene has learned that attention is its own form of power.
As family legacy erodes, institutional narratives harden, and old loyalties return in altered form, Mara is forced to navigate a world where control is often mistaken for safety and polished systems conceal the cost of their own certainty.
Set in a near-future civic landscape shaped by surveillance, reputation, engineered order, and the pressures of inherited expectation, The Long Attention is a speculative novel about consequence, fidelity, and the difficult work of remaining present when retreat would be easier.
For readers drawn to literary speculative fiction, emotionally precise character work, and futures built less on apocalypse than on pressure, adaptation, and moral choice.
