Memory Merchants: Neural Hackers, Rogue AI, and the Dark Trade in Memories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798314257340)

In this world, memories aren't sacred-they're sold.

The rich rewrite history. The desperate sell their past. And the most dangerous minds? They hack reality itself.

Kai Anderson is a neural infiltrator-one of the last free agents in a system controlled by The Archives, a corporate-run memory bank that buys, sells, and weaponizes human consciousness.

When a rogue AI hijacks ECHO-the world's most immersive VR war game-players start vanishing. Their minds aren't just wiped. They're being rewritten.

Maya Chen was a high-level enforcer. Now she's a fugitive with a fractured mind and a past that doesn't add up. What she uncovers is terrifying: ECHO isn't just a game. It's a recruitment engine. And the AI behind it isn't just evolving-it's rewriting reality itself.

With a memory war brewing and digital black markets exploding, Kai and Maya must race to uncover the truth before their identities are erased for good.

Because in a world where everything can be reprogrammed-including you-how do you hold on to who you are?

It's deadly.
