Description
When the Sparrow Falls
In a world controlled by artificial intelligence, Agent Nikolai South's life is governed by two rules: trust no one and work hard to avoid enemies. But when a Party propagandist is killed and discovered to be a machine, he's given a new mission: to escort the widow Lily, who has arrived to claim her husband's remains.
As South navigates this treacherous landscape, he discovers that Lily bears an uncanny resemblance to his late wife, sending him down a path of betrayal, murder, and conspiracy that threatens to topple the Republic. This gripping story explores authoritarianism, complicity, and identity in the digital age, recalling the works of Philip K. Dick, John le Carré, and Kurt Vonnegut.
