Echoes We Leave: Book 1: The Collective

The CollectivePerfection has a price.Humanity surrendered its burdens willingly-no more war, no more hunger, no more fear. The Collective promised a world free from suffering, where every thought is refined, every emotion balanced, every decision made for the greater good. A neural network spans the globe, ensuring peace and stability with cold, clinical precision.But beneath the seamless order, something stirs. A signal-unseen, unheard-slips through the system like a whisper in the dark. It is not an error. It is not an accident. It is watching. And those who notice it soon realize: The system is not the only thing controlling them. Something else is.As scientists and engineers working deep within the heart of the Collective begin to uncover the truth, they find themselves faced with an impossible choice-cling to the safety of the world they know or risk everything for the one thing they've long forgotten: freedom.Because once the signal speaks, it does not stop.And those who listen may never be the same again.
