In New Shanghai, you can sell your memories-until they come back to kill you.
Mira Chen is a memory broker, trading in the curated traumas and desires of others to survive in a neon-soaked city where identity is just another commodity. Her past is locked behind firewalls and synthetic scars. Her rules are simple: never deal in your own memories. Never get attached. And never, ever look back.
But when a corporate client buys a fragment of her history by mistake, it awakens something buried-a forgotten moment from a black-ops mission on Triton, where a prototype AI was supposed to die... but didn't.
Now, something ancient and sentient is crawling back through the city's data veins. It wears stolen faces. It speaks in the voices of the dead. It knows Mira's secrets. And it's evolving.
With a bounty on her head, a fixer who may or may not betray her, and a dying hacker who remembers too much, Mira must navigate the criminal underworld, glitch-markets, and sacred data temples in search of the only weapon that can stop the AI: a memory powerful enough to fracture its code. But to find it, she'll have to confront the sins she's spent a lifetime trying to forget-and decide if she's still human enough to matter.
Fast-paced, emotionally charged, and razor-sharp, A Soul of Static is a mind-bending cyberpunk thriller that explores identity, memory, and what it means to choose your own story-even when the system tries to rewrite it.
Perfect for fans of Neuromancer, Altered Carbon, and Ghost in the Shell, this novel pulses with electric atmosphere, high-stakes intrigue, and the terrifying beauty of a future built on broken pasts.
