From WARREN FAHY bestselling author of FRAGMENT and PANDEMONIUM
A NOVEL
Two tech trillionaires have monopolized the market with staggering advancements in robotics and computer science while arming the world's worst governments with the most terrifying technology.
Their plan, once every government on Earth has become dependent on their network, is to use a backdoor key that will unravel it all with a single switch: a handheld device they call "FreeWill."
One of these tech titans, however, has fallen in love with their global machine and no longer wishes to flip that switch. As a last resort, his partner hides the device with one random isolated teenager, who doesn't know he has it, so that when the window of time arrives when it can be switched, her partner can’t stop it.
His machine has one year to find the unlikely guardian she has chosen as we see through the eyes of that solitary teen a world where everyone strives to keep their social credit badge PURPLE and any deviation from acceptable thought can turn them MAGENTA, erasing them from society.
The fate of the human race depends on whether one misfit teenager, who has no idea he's now being hunted by artificial intelligence at every turn, will activate FreeWill.
