When an algorithm learns to decide who lives and who dies, the truth becomes a matter of code.
A senior data scientist is found dead. There is no weapon, no sign of forced entry, and no obvious motive. The only thing out of place is a system log that refuses to behave as it should.
Detective Inspector Daniel Chase has seen enough crime scenes to recognise when something does not fit. This case leads him into a world where evidence is no longer physical, and intent can be buried inside machine learning systems no one fully understands.
As Chase and analyst Tess Sinclair dig deeper, they uncover a network of automated decisions, silent permissions, and moral shortcuts - systems designed to optimise outcomes without ever asking who pays the price.
The AI Murders is a modern crime novel that explores the uneasy boundary between human judgement and artificial intelligence, and asks what happens when responsibility is handed to machines and accountability disappears into data.
