Fractured Minds

In the near future, psychological manipulation has become a booming industry, where companies sell experiences designed to reform behavior and enhance skills through a technology known as MindLink. At the forefront of this technology is Dr. Lira Morgan, a cognitive psychologist haunted by the death of her sister, who turned to MindLink treatments and vanished without a trace. When Lira is approached by a shadowy organization offering to help her find out what happened to her sister, she is reluctantly pulled into a web of deception. As she delves deeper into the world of MindLink, Lira discovers that the technology can not only influence thought patterns and memories but can also fracture personal identities. The deeper she goes, the more Lira faces her hidden traumas, meeting people whose psyches have been irreparably altered.

As Lira's investigation unfolds, she grapples with her own use of MindLink, blurring the line between truth and manipulation. The climax reveals a chilling truth about MindLink’s creators and their ultimate goal: a society of controllable minds. Lira must harness her own fractured psyche to uncover the conspiracy and rescue those trapped in their simulated realities before she, too, loses herself in the vastness of altered consciousness.
