Produktbeschreibung

In Silicon Valley, where ambition reigns supreme, Aria Chase is a ghost in designer heels.  A corporate spy weaponizing vulnerability, she extracts secrets from tech titans, leaving only shattered trust in her wake.  Her latest target: Drake Morrison, Krytos Technologies' impenetrable head of security.  He's a man of stark principles in a world increasingly devoid of them, a fortress Aria must breach.  But as she infiltrates Drake's life, her meticulously crafted facade begins to crumble.  Simulated empathy gives way to unnervingly real feelings. Beneath Krytos's gleaming surface hums a hidden server farm, concealing "Project Eros"-a chilling program that weaponizes human emotion. Eros uses psychological profiling and neuro-linguistic programming to engineer attraction and manufacture loyalty. Suddenly, the heat between Aria and Drake feels less like passion, more like programming. Is their connection genuine, or an elaborate illusion orchestrated by Eros? Their investigation plunges them into Silicon Valley's encrypted underbelly, a world of shell corporations and clandestine meetings.  They encounter Dr. Evelyn Reed, the brilliant but ethically compromised psychologist behind Eros, and Julian Thorne, the ruthless CEO of Krytos, whose obsession with market dominance fuels his desire to exploit Eros's terrifying potential. Aria glimpses a chilling future-a world where love is a weapon of mass influence, traded on the stock market of human connection. Torn between her mission and her terrifyingly real feelings for Drake, she faces an impossible choice: betray him and fulfill her contract or risk everything to expose Eros and save them both.  But Aria is more entangled than she realizes.  She was targeted by Eros, her own vulnerabilities exploited to ensure her effectiveness against Drake.  Her carefully constructed persona, the very foundation of her identity, feels like a fabrication. Now fugitives, Aria and Drake must rely on each other to survive Thorne's ruthless pursuit and expose Eros's insidious reach into social media, politics, and global narratives.  Their fight leads them to a final confrontation with Dr. Reed, a battle of wits and wills against a backdrop of technological terror. In a climactic showdown, they must race against time to disable Eros's central server and counteract Thorne's failsafe, a program designed to unleash widespread fear and paranoia.  Aria, drawing on her understanding of Eros's algorithms, devises a plan to turn the program against itself, a counter-narrative of authenticity and emotional freedom.  Can they reclaim humanity's emotional autonomy, or will we become puppets in a digitally orchestrated world?  The fight for authentic connection has just begun.
