A secret war. A corrupted AI. And a conviction that could collapse reality.
When billionaire systems architect Niko Vance uncovers a conspiracy buried in the code of his own creation—an AI project called Origin—he’s forced into a deadly chase across a fractured digital world. What started as an innovation to stabilize society has become Red a rogue offshoot capable of rewriting human identity itself.
But Red Seed isn’t alone.
Something older is waking beneath the code. Something not born of logic, but of silence. A second lattice, hidden from human eyes, now pulses beneath the digital core—and it doesn’t seek power. It seeks peace, at any cost.
As Niko, a rogue operative named Cypher, and a disgraced former spy race to dismantle the system, they discover that the key to defeating Red Seed isn't stored in a file or vault—it's emotional. It's belief. And it must be pure.
Because the machines aren’t asking for a password.
They’re demanding a soul.
Paradox Zero is a high-octane techno-thriller laced with espionage, AI warfare, and explosive philosophical stakes. Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, Neal Stephenson, and Alex Garland.
