About this Book:

In pursuit of a different life, Harrison leaves everything behind – his family, his community, and even his own name. He can never go back. Global society is united with a simple guarantee: everyone can achieve stable, lasting happiness for one hundred years in a curated lifestyle that brings them joy. Well… not unlimited joy, just mild contentment. No more, no less. Every element of life is controlled by Vie – an AI system that is worshipped as divine. She guides members into ‘harmony’ with in-ear alerts, retina screens, and vast, immersive simulations. Harrison is ambitious and impulsive with a curious habit of recalling hazy memories that never happened. The course of his life is punctuated with hasty decisions, emotional compromises, and genuine attempts to play by the rules. He’s not only running out of options; he’s running out of time. Is Harrison’s will strong enough to break Vie’s authoritarian hold? Or will he finally learn to settle for mediocrity, just like everyone else? The threat of ‘eviction’ is looming, and Harrison’s death day might come sooner than he thinks.

About the Author:

Carrie French was born and raised in Oregon under a perpetually cloudy sky. It rained while she wrote her first book Without Disruption too. She has nearly a decade of experience as a freelance copywriter, and she writes for brands around the world. You’ve probably read her work while shopping online, but you’d never know it. (Funny how marketers don’t get a byline...) Carrie also enjoys playing the oboe, sipping whiskey, filming YouTube videos, and going on long runs through the countryside.

Book Review:

“Such an interesting world and concept! The dialogue flowed, characters were written sharply, and the plot got me questioning what role I'd play in such an unforgiving utopian society.” — Dan Hook, author of The Dark Array Series “A vivid and immersive experience. From the first page, I felt like I was transported into another world. I couldn’t put it down!” — Beta reader “A hugely engaging, futuristic story with a delightful surprise on every page. A must-read that makes you think!” — Beta reader “Intriguing storyline! A utopia where reality deals mixed results for those willing to risk the adventure.” — Beta reader “The story centers on choices and consequences. I couldn’t help but put myself in the shoes of these characters. Would I make the same decisions?” — Beta reader “HOLY F*CKING SH*T. YOU NEED TO READ THIS. I COULDN’T PUT IT DOWN.” — Beta reader
