The fate of humanity on the line, she might be the last person you want to call.
A lot changed for Vivi Rodriguez in the years since she stole the world's most dangerous artificial sentience, not the least of which was her name. Olivia Cordoba. A real downgrade, just like the rest of her life.
Olivia wished she never bartered for the flash clone that stole her happy future. An omission on the NSA's part. Her consciousness wasn't getting moved to the clone, only copied. And what did this copy of Vivi do with its newfound humanity?
Drunk herself into an early grave. Ungrateful b***h.
Jealous of the comparatively restful peace her clone managed to find, Olivia finds herself shackled to the NSA's counter-AI task force as middle management. A much bloodier job than the title would suggest.
Meanwhile the credo of a new religion echoes on the world's stage: A great communion is coming. The wicked shall perish. The meek will inherit the earth.
When a plot to end humankind is uncovered, the world's fate may end up in Olivia's hands. But after everything it's done to her, why would she choose to save it?
Apocalypse Engine, Rusted Synapse Book Two, concludes Vivi Olivia's story in a twisting tale of shifting alliances when subjective reality collides inconveniently with concrete truth.
