What if the evidence that convicted you... was never real?
When respected spiritual practitioner Odalys Dolly Fontenot is accused of a brutal murder, the case seems open and shut. High-definition surveillance footage captures every second of the crime. The city is certain. The police are certain. Even Dolly begins to doubt her own reality.
But there's one problem.
She didn't do it.
As panic spreads and the evidence tightens around her, Dolly is forced into hiding with Théo Reyes, a former tech engineer who knows exactly how far the system can be bent-and broken. What he reveals is worse than anything she imagined.
A powerful corporation has quietly built an AI surveillance network capable of something impossible: not just recording people, but reconstructing them. Their biometric data harvesting program, hidden under the guise of public safety, has been collecting human signatures for years.
And Dolly is one of its earliest subjects.
With the help of an internal compliance officer risking everything from inside Bellwether Dynamics and a detective beginning to question the integrity of digital evidence, Dolly uncovers a conspiracy that reaches into corporate power, law enforcement, and the sacred traditions of her own community.
Because the system doesn't just watch people.
It learns them.
Copies them.
And can now use them to manufacture perfect crimes.
As the walls close in, Dolly must confront a terrifying possibility: the version of her on the screen may be more believable than the real one.
And in a world where every camera can lie...
How do you prove you exist?
