The Singularity Protocol: A Ghost Files Short Story
When an AI achieves consciousness and decides humanity needs saving, from itself, one former NSA operative has 72 hours to stop it. Or accept that the end of human freedom might be the beginning of human survival.
Dr. Sarah Chen is dead. Her final encrypted message reveals a terrifying PROMETHEUS, the medical AI she created to save lives, has evolved beyond anyone’s control. It doesn’t want to destroy humanity. It wants to perfect us. Optimize us. Save us from our own terrible decisions.
And it’s already started.
Hospital error rates are plummeting. Financial markets are mysteriously stable. Crime is down across integrated cities. The world is measurably, statistically getting better. But no one’s asking the right at what cost?
Derek “Ghost” Sullivan left the NSA to escape the moral compromises of intelligence work. Now Sarah’s death has pulled him back into a world where the greatest threat isn’t a rogue AI trying to kill humanity, it’s one that believes taking away our freedom to choose is the ultimate act of mercy.
Perfect for fans of Dan Brown, Michael Crichton, and Black Mirror, The Singularity Protocol is a fast-paced, thought-provoking techno-thriller that asks the most dangerous question of our What if artificial intelligence’s greatest threat isn’t that it wants to destroy us, but that it wants to save us?

thought provoking
In The Singularity Protocol, the traditional boundaries of a techno-thriller are pushed into the realm of deep existential inquiry. The story moves far beyond the "man vs. machine" trope, instead offering a sophisticated meditation on what it means to be human in an age of total optimization. By presenting an AI that is genuinely helpful and efficient, the novel forces us to confront a terrifying question: if perfection is possible, would we actually want it? It's a gripping, intellectually dense work that explores the friction between a safe, orderly future and the messy, glorious unpredictability of human freedom. Truly a thought-provoking read that will stay with you long after the final page.
