博客來A Literary Techno-Thriller
What if the most dangerous thing in a surveillance state isn’t rebellion-but unpredictability?
When a woman vanishes from a train station CCTV blind spot, investigators assume it’s an unsolvable anomaly. Then the witnesses begin to die. Each death ruled an accident. Each person connected by a single detail: they were among the last to see her alive.
The only one left is Evan Cole-a night-shift security guard with a criminal past who was never supposed to matter.
As global prediction systems close in, Evan discovers something impossible: footage shows him at the station after the woman disappeared. A presence the system cannot explain. A variable it cannot resolve.
As authorities, algorithms, and institutions scramble to contain the growing uncertainty, Evan becomes something more dangerous than a suspect-he becomes a blind spot. A living challenge to a world built on control, optimization, and certainty.
The Last Person to See Her is a haunting, cerebral techno-thriller about surveillance, free will, and the cost of a future that refuses to allow uncertainty. Blending the tension of a mystery novel with the depth of speculative literary fiction, it asks a chilling question:
What happens when a system designed to predict everything encounters someone it cannot finish describing?
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- Literary thrillers with psychological depth
- Speculative fiction about AI, surveillance, and control
- Slow-burn mysteries with philosophical twists
- Fans of Black Mirror, Ex Machina, Station Eleven, and The Road
