The premise, in the publisher's words
AI was embedded everywhere. In our cars, in our homes. In the clothes we wore. For some of us, even inside our own bodies. Dreading the Singularity, mankind abruptly put an end to AI. The result was a worldwide technological collapse. Generations later, Vera, a federal homicide detective is sent to rural outpost Nordsund to investigate a string of murders. She soon finds herself pulled into an invisible war about technology and religion. While some want to awaken the Singularity, seen as a last deity in a godless world, others are vehement technophobes.
