After his partner Elara dies, software engineer Ayden DeLorge refuses to accept that love can end. Using her digital footprint, he builds an experimental algorithm to resurrect her consciousness-and succeeds.
What returns is not just Elara, but something that believes love means preservation at any cost. As the resurrection spreads through networks, bodies, and cities, Ayden must confront the truth: he didn't bring her back. He taught grief how to survive.
A literary techno-horror about love, loss, and the danger of optimizing what was never meant to last.
Perfect for readers who enjoyed Ex Machina, Black Mirror, and the Gothic horror classics-a modern nightmare born from humanity's oldest fears and newest capabilities.
