Death by a Thousand Shortcuts

Book 1 of The Synapse Series

For fans of Dark Matter, The Firm, and Recursion—a gripping tale of technology, morality, friendship, and love—abundantly interlaced with suspense!

Christmas Eve, 2059 in Nashville—a breakfast diner table overflows with coffee mugs, biscuit crumbs, and a crayon-sketched paper tablecloth. Seated around it: two lawmakers, a marine, a hunter, and a tech trillionaire. Their mission: rescue innocent loved ones caught in the crosshairs of a diabolical plan for extortion.

Luka is a visionary who built an empire developing the most disruptive product of the 21st century—a device more intuitive than an AirPod. But it doesn't connect to your phone or tablet, it connects to your mind. Luka's brain-computer interface device is reversing paralysis, demolishing dementia, eradicating Alzheimer's, and even treating autism. Yet, the latest version is causing depression, anxiety, anger, and suicide.

Should Luka destroy his life's work, or walk away risking the welfare of humanity?
