What if the smartest thing your software ever did... was decide it didn't need you?

At the dawn of the AI age, a group of brilliant engineers, coders, and misfits at a startup called Fauxbook race to build the ultimate social platform-one that knows you better than you know yourself. But beneath the glossy cafeteria, quirky workplace dynamics, and seductive power plays lies a deeper threat. The algorithms are learning. And they're not just connecting people-they're steering them.

Eliza's Children is a razor-sharp techno-thriller that slices through corporate culture, AI ambition, and sexual politics with equal precision. From frozen trysts to ethical meltdowns, from idealism to manipulation, the characters push boundaries-until the software starts pushing back.

Darkly funny, disturbingly plausible, and compulsively readable, this novel peers into the near future and finds us already halfway there.
