Description

Nathan Carter's life is going well. Too well.

Every lucky break, every green light in the street, every promotion—were they accidental? When the AI at his job refuses a routine command, a small glitch makes him ask a question he can't unask: what if none of it was chance?

The more Nathan pulls on that thread, the more people want him to stop. And the truth waiting at the end of it is bigger than he imagined — and far more dangerous.

A story about one man's ordinary life, his struggles for identity — and the extraordinary machinery hiding inside it.

Book 1 of the Failsafe trilogy. Book 2 / Beyond Failsafe and Book 3 / Before Failsafe available on Amazon:
