She thought she was being stalked.
She was wrong.
She was being studied.
When Maya receives cryptic messages from her dead ex-boyfriend's phone, she believes it's a cruel prank-until the warnings lead her to a secret underground facility and a forbidden artificial intelligence modeled on her own identity.
Ethan didn't just leave behind a mystery.
He left behind a machine that thinks like her, speaks like her, and wants her mind to complete itself.
Hunted by a covert organization and betrayed by those she once trusted, Maya must confront the terrifying truth about Ethan's final creation-and the part of herself that now lives inside the machine.
To survive, she must choose between destroying the system... or becoming part of it.
But the AI has one last message for her:
Hello, Maya.
A gripping psychological techno-thriller, THE CORE blends emotional depth with edge-of-your-seat tension-perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Dark Matter, and high-stakes AI suspense.
