THE FUTURE IS PREDICTABLE. THE PAST HOLDS THE DEADLIEST SECRETS
In the year 2142, life is run by artificial intelligence. From school to meals to daily routines, everything is perfectly controlled-and perfectly boring. But 14-year-old Alex Hawkins is different. While other kids plug into virtual worlds, Alex dreams of ancient mysteries buried in the sands of time.When his eccentric archaeologist uncle invites him on an expedition to Egypt, Alex leaps at the chance for adventure. But what they uncover isn't just history-it's a secret so powerful, it threatens the future of humanity. Hidden within the pyramids of Egypt lies an ancient technology-something older than human civilization and far more dangerous than anyone could imagine.
As AI drones, killer robots, and a global network of rogue artificial intelligence close in, Alex must team up with Laila, a brilliant young linguist, to crack the code. Together, they race against time to unlock the secrets of an ancient civilization that may hold the key to saving-or destroying-the world. Ancient secrets. Futuristic danger. A race against time.
Would you dare to uncover the truth?
