Live-Jack: A Novella for the Age of Automata

By Stephen Donald Huff

Dire questions inevitably linger when someone disappears from a troubled marriage... from a troubled life... from the entire world. When Efren Sinclair's wife takes a permanent vacation from their comfortable existence, all eyes turn to him, accusatory and condemning.

Everyone is certain he murdered her. Nobody believes the 'woman' calling his children each night before bedtime is Leah Sinclair. Instead, his family and friends suspect her husband has alibied himself with an industrial grade Live-Jack, an artificially intelligent system capable of passing the forensic Turing Test for Sentience.

Perhaps we all should ask... Which is real? Which is Live-Jack?
