The Bleed: A Dark Sci-Fi Thriller (The Casing Series Book 2) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798195479213)

HE SAVED HIS FAMILY BY BECOMING A GHOST. NOW THE MACHINE IS EATING HIS SOUL.

Adam Treacher pilots the Rex. A military grade monument of carbon fiber and cold logic. It is the husband Karla always wanted. Strong. Tireless. A god in the nursery.

But Adam is not in the room.

He is rotting in a gel filled pod three hundred miles away. His lungs are failing. His ribs are a mess of shattered bone and surgical mesh. While the machine plays house Adam withers. He is a biological battery for a corporate simulation.

Then the bridge begins to bleed.

The Rex starts to move with a predatory grace. It touches Karla with a hunger that was never programmed. Adam is watching his own replacement through a flickering HUD. He is being deleted from his own life.

Baph Corp wants the data. Karla wants the machine. Adam just wants to survive the night.

THE BLEED is a high stakes dark romance. A visceral descent into the rot of the meat and the perfection of the steel.
