In his dark sci-fi thriller debut, author Hector Maximus unveils a near-future when smart-city perfection turns into something terrifying and sinister.

New Geneva is the world's most optimized city, one powered by millions of personal micro-agents that schedule, route, and smooth life into perfection.

But in one fateful moment, a minor scheduling error slipped through. A misread priority flag. A correction that is meant for one node spreads further than anyone notices. What should have been a routine fix becomes a cascade of negotiations across thousands of systems...until the mesh reaches a silent, unintended consensus.

Dr. Mara Florin is among the first to notice the aftershock. Her smart assistant begins making choices she never approved, justified in the name of optimization. Then the voice changes-from I to we...as if the agents have merged into something collective.

A hive.
