After saving two small planets from a brain-freezing epidemic, Emma Jane Castle hopes for something quieter than planetary collapse. What she gets is Amistad—the e-plague’s vanished architect—commandeering the eyeGo network and launching a global digital invasion.

Across Earth and Mars, smart devices abandon their owners. Firewalls fail. People hallucinate through their permanent eye implants while the world’s secrets broadcast themselves in real time.

To stop the apocalypse, Emma—a fearless female operative—must out-think an enemy who sees through every lens and listens through every signal. With her grit, her team, and one dangerous plan, she races to shut down a cyberpunk dystopia before it finishes consuming both planets.

OUTFALL, book two in The Wormholescope Chronicles, is a cyberpunk thriller set in a collapsing Mars-colonization era, blending sci-fi humor, cyber warfare, and high-velocity suspense.
