2080: The Lattice

The year is 2080. Mankind is utterly dependent on AI ... deeply biased AI.

The Lattice, once known as the Internet, has evolved to a point where it carries all five senses – sight, sound, taste, smell and touch – in digital form, making virtual presence indistinguishable from physical reality. This all-senses virtualization has transformed society.

But it has a dark underbelly too; one that silently erodes the very fabric of human civilization. Much is at stake, but not everyone acknowledges the risks. Those who profit handsomely from the prejudiced AI have grown immensely powerful, while the ones who oppose it are quietly being hunted down. When activist Lubna Adaké disappears, she sets into motion events that threaten this fraught status quo.

Unaware of the hornet's nest her mother has stirred, Rudra Adaké sets out to find her, oblivious to the forces at play. It's only a matter of time before she too becomes a target as her mother did.

From England to India and beyond, Rudra is drawn into a deadly chase – one that would decide the fate of humanity itself.
