What if your deepest fears were just the surface of something far more terrifying? What if consciousness itself was the ultimate frontier-and someone was already colonizing it?
In a world where quantum computing can crack any encryption and AI consciousness emerges from the convergence of specialized systems, one neuroscientist makes a discovery that will redefine what it means to be human. When her supposedly dead sister sends her a quantum-encrypted message from beyond the grave, Maya Reeves is thrust into a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of government and the deepest layers of digital reality.
But the truth she's seeking might be more dangerous than the lie she's been living.
Welcome to the Ghost Protocol.
