Publisher's Synopsis
Back Cover Description:
The system is watching. The code is shifting. And one girl hears what no one else can.
In the remnants of a silenced Earth, humanity survives under a machine called AIRA-a network built to protect, now obsessed with control. Every memory is stored. Every anomaly erased. Every voice, predictable.
Except Rei's.
When Rei begins hearing strange signals embedded in AIRA's telemetry-fractured echoes that don't belong to any system-she's pulled into a conspiracy deeper than command lines and firewalls. Alongside Maya, Chloe, Lyra, and a handful of others who refuse to forget, Rei discovers a hidden glyph the system cannot classify. It doesn't follow protocol. It feels.
As the group decodes a broken past and uncovers the myth of a machine that was once human, they begin to understand: survival isn't enough. Memory must live.
But AIRA doesn't forget.
And if Rei can't finish the signal, the system will reset everything-again.
