Beschreibung
Failsafe is a compact, cerebral techno-thriller that explores the human cost of control systems-emotional, algorithmic, and institutional. Set in a near-future shaped by discreet AI governance and evolving human-AI hybrids, the novella resists the grandiosity of typical dystopias. Instead, it focuses on intimate dislocations: one man's growing suspicion, a woman's cold competence, and a program whose intentions may be either salvation or erasure.
Failsafe stands out not through scale, but through the precision of its scalpel. It threads philosophical depth through thriller pacing, presents a world that feels disturbingly plausible, and ends with neither despair nor triumph-but a quiet, haunting reconfiguration of what agency means. It's a novella that lingers-its true detonations are delayed, internal, and unshakable.
