Zero Day Murder: Another One-Hour Mystery

By Terry Andaya

A murder engineered by an algorithm. A detective haunted by her past. A truth no one is prepared to face.

When Dr. Maren Calloway collapses inside a sealed "Smart Environment" at NEURALIS 2025, the world assumes a tragic accident. But former detective Ava Sable sees something else-an impossible crime executed through four harmless "nudges" delivered by unsuspecting conference attendees.

As Ava digs deeper, she uncovers a gamified system of distributed guilt, a vanished founder who never existed, and a sibling whose genius has turned into something far more dangerous. But the real threat isn't the players-it's the corporation quietly rewriting the rules behind the scenes.

When the building itself turns hostile, Ava must choose between the law she once served and the truth she can no longer ignore. And the final decision will burn everything down.

Perfect for fans of near-future thrillers, AI-driven mysteries, and tight, cinematic storytelling.
