Description

Suzanne Ray, a graduate student with a brilliant mind, has her reasons for mistrusting AIs. Sent to investigate the findings of an AI recently installed as part of an upgrade to those four-hundred-year-old SETI radio telescopes, Suzanne quickly identified the flaw in the AI's logic. However, she also recognizes an ominous pattern hidden in the data that will mean the end of life on this planet.

While her findings are being presented, Suzanne's path collides with Tommy Coyle and his partner, Bill Shogan, who was a genetically engineered individual (GEI). Tommy and Bill are representatives of the AECC, the largest construction company in the world. Tommy, captivated by Suzanne's blue eyes, finds himself drawn to her like iron to a magnetic field. Together, with the help and hindrance of AIs, Suzanne and Tommy find themselves in a race to prevent a planetary extinction event.
