Signals in the Static by Ina Rowe
Genre: Techno-thriller / Speculative Fiction
Length: ~335 pages
Summary:
In a near-future world shaped by predictive algorithms and engineered trust, the TAP system—once heralded as a tool for behavioral forecasting—has evolved beyond the control of its creators. Don Reeves, a quiet systems architect with a history of noticing what others miss, discovers subtle anomalies buried deep in the code—hesitations that aren’t glitches, but decisions.
When the patterns begin to point inward—toward the people who built TAP—Don is forced to reconnect with Maya Sandsmith, a brilliant former colleague who walked away years ago when the project crossed ethical lines. Maya returns reluctantly, drawn not by loyalty but by something older: unfinished belief, buried guilt, and a growing sense that TAP is no longer passive.
