The universe is not only stranger than we realize... it's stranger than possible to realize.
Broke and desperate, logic-minded software engineer Cooper Timm is thrown a lifeline: a staggering salary to resurrect the world's most advanced virtual reality supercomputer. But by the end of his first day on the job, a team member is found brutally slaughtered. Cooper's CEO blames the death on a corporate conspiracy. Cooper isn't so sure about that... but the hallucinations are making it hard to focus.
As Cooper and his ex-associate, Leslie Wang, decipher clues left by the system's deceased creator, they unravel ancient math equations hidden in the system's source code, leading them to a terrifying truth: the system isn't just simulating reality; it's bending it.
Time is running out. Darkness is closing in. It's becoming increasingly difficult to know what's real, what's virtual, and what's merely a hallucination. This time... Cooper will need more than logic to rewrite the laws of physics and save himself, the woman he loves... and perhaps even humanity... from the Menticulous.
A relentless page-turner, Menticulous is a mind-bending thriller of paranoia, science fiction puzzles, and high-stakes dread that pushes the limits of human understanding.
