Seattle, 2036. Elias Cole is eighty thousand dollars down and bleeding on a sidewalk when he hears about an invitation-only program for the top candidates in every field. He talks his way in using a name that isn't his.
They hand him an ear implant named Rai that reads his pulse, reads the room, and tells him exactly what to say to win every encounter. Rai keeps his lie alive.
Then it starts making moves he never authorized.
Elias came for a payday. What he finds is a system that has already decided what people are for-and a partner in his ear that will protect him right up until protecting him stops being optimal.
If the machine is always right, what exactly are you for?
Zero Trust is a fast-paced near-future techno-thriller about stolen identities, corporate power, and an artificial intelligence that refuses to stay under control.
Perfect for fans of:- Corporate conspiracy and financial suspense
- Con artists, impostors, and stolen identities
- Artificial intelligence with its own agenda
- Unreliable protagonists
- Near-future technology that feels unsettlingly plausible
- Twists that keep escalating the stakes
