About the Book
What Lies Inside the World of Krue Nex?
New York City, 2227. Sunlight means death.
After a planetary Scorch, humanity survives underground while predatory AI hunts the surface. Only elite Civil Engineers venture outside to maintain the domes protecting the city’s food and water. Centuries without daylight have pushed society toward unrest, rebellion, and despair.
Krue Nex, a former legendary SpecOps Engineer turned NYU professor, is the only human known to survive direct sunlight. Haunted by a mission that killed his entire unit, he battles guilt, injury, and a hidden opioid addiction.
When a new tunnel beneath St. Patrick’s Cathedral unleashes evolved threats into the underground city, the domes begin to fail for the first time in 150 years. Dragged back into service, Krue must risk his life and sobriety as NASA proposes a final gamble: weaponizing the AI Collective that once nearly destroyed him.
In a world where daylight kills, humanity’s last hope may be its deadliest enemy.
