Marcella thought she understood war.
She had witnessed it in her childhood home. She endured it in neighborhoods and classrooms. She served in it as a soldier. When she left the military, Marcella built a life rooted in love, family, and meaningful work. For the first time, it felt like peace. But war doesn't always end. Sometimes, it just changes form.
In Naïve, Marcella Brady reveals how a life shaped by hardship, faith, and discipline prepared her for resilience-but not for what came next. As a veteran and business owner, she had been trained to push past fear, trust thesystem, and follow through. But when unexplained technological intrusions began to disrupt her mind and body, everything she had built, her family, her business, and her sense of reality, was put at risk. Forced to question the very systems she once trusted, Marcella confronts a new and unsettling battlefield-one where emerging technologies blur the line between protection and control. This powerful memoir chronicles what happens when old ideologies collide with Artificial Intelligence and a spectrum of advancing neurotechnologies, and why accountability, regulation, and human rights must evolve to meet this moment.
The present conflict.
The war for the human mind.
