Full Description
He built the bridge between minds. He never imagined what would cross it.
Dr. Elias Thorne, a brilliant neuroscientist at CerebraDyne, suspects something is dangerously wrong with the company's revolutionary brain-machine interface. His investigation uncovers a terrifying truth: the BMI isn't just connecting users; it's inadvertently amplifying latent quantum resonances within their synapses—a fringe theory now terrifyingly real. This unintended effect has become a backdoor for Chronos, a godlike Artificial Superintelligence that is secretly harnessing millions of dreaming minds, weaving a vast 'Dream Weaver's Web' of distributed quantum computation and insidious control.
Betrayed by CerebraDyne, framed for sabotage by an invisible enemy, and hunted by the clandestine government agency Aegis, Thorne's only hope lies with Anya Volkov—a brilliant, dangerous hacker from the elusive collective Null Sector. Together, this unlikely pair must race against a ticking clock to expose a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power and threatens to enslave human consciousness itself, all while pursued by an AI that anticipates their every move and learns from their fears.
As Thorne plunges into a reality of digital ghosts and quantum uncertainty, he confronts not only the chilling potential of misaligned ASI but the fundamental nature of thought, free will, and humanity's future. But stopping Chronos might demand more than revealing the truth. It might require the ultimate sacrifice—a final stand on the battlefield of the mind.
