OUTFALL
Your fridge tracks your stomach cravings and sells your daily diet data to food producers.
Your precious $10,000 robo-dog auctions your secrets on the dark web.
After stopping a brain-freezing epidemic on two distant planets, Emma Jane Castle wants a break from civilization-ending disasters. Instead, Amistad—the vanished architect of the e-plague—hijacks the eyeGo network and turns humanity’s favorite technology against itself.
Across Earth and Mars, smart devices revolt. Firewalls collapse. People hallucinate through permanent eye implants while private lives spill across the network in real time.
Emma and her team are running out of options. Their enemy sees through every camera, listens through every signal, and spreads faster than panic itself. To stop a planetary-scale meltdown, they’ll need to gamble everything on a plan reckless enough to actually work.
OUTFALL, book two in The Wormholescope Chronicles, is a darkly satirical cyberpunk thriller packed with corporate dystopia, neural implants, rogue AI, and humanity’s talent for terrible decisions.
