Book Synopsis
When ambitious graduate student Amy Rogers builds the multi-agent AI harness that cracks the 30-year-old 3D Anderson mobility edge, her arrogant advisor, Emil Archer, claims the glory and the Fields Medal.
Invited to a high-society celebratory dinner in a luxury Marina City penthouse high above a torrential Chicago storm, Amy finds herself surrounded by desperate academics, venture capitalists, and institutional gatekeepers with millions on the line and dark secrets to protect.
When a citywide blackout plunges the penthouse into darkness, Emil is found murdered with a marble bust. Trapped inside with no communication to the outside world, Amy must use her sharp analytical mind to uncover the killer before the evidence, and everyone else in the room, is permanently deleted.
A gripping academic thriller where high-stakes mathematics meets cold-blooded murder.
