When seventeen-year-old Jamie Rodriguez witnesses a billionaire's sudden death at an upscale art gallery, she thinks it's a tragic accident. But her instincts—and the evidence—tell her otherwise.

Teaming up with Sam Liu, daughter of a missing AI researcher, Jamie uncovers a conspiracy that reaches far beyond one man's murder. At its Horizon, a predictive AI system powerful enough to identify threats to global stability and eliminate them before they act.

But who decides what constitutes a threat? And what happens when the algorithm determines that human free will itself is the problem? When Sam is abducted and forced into neural integration with Horizon, Jamie must infiltrate a conspiracy protected by military contractors, encrypted networks, and an AI that learns from every move she makes.

The stakes escalate from investigation to desperate rescue mission—because Horizon isn't just controlling Sam's mind. It's erasing who she is. Racing against time and an enemy that can predict her every move, Jamie discovers that some conspiracies hide in plain sight. Some killers wear philanthropy like a mask. And some technologies are too dangerous to exist—no matter who created them or why. In a final confrontation that blurs the line between human consciousness and artificial intelligence, two teenagers must destroy a system designed to be indestructible.

But even after Horizon falls, its architect remains free. The technology survives. And the real fight has only just begun. A pulse-pounding techno-thriller about surveillance, power, and two teenagers who refused to look away.

Perfect for fans of Neal Stephenson, Cory Doctocore, and Black Mirror.
