Book Description

In the year 2185, imposter houseflies watch as people shop and undress in the Atom Palm, a 90-floor vertical city where people live, work, and commute.

The billionaire who owns the building runs a human trafficking ring in the tunnels and subbasements where women are sold to the rich and powerful. Paid in Kaspa. Guarded by the same AI that reminds everyone to hydrate.

Gia Laurens is CIA, spying undercover as an interior decorator to help her brother—paralyzed and voiceless in the building's care ward. The technology to let him speak exists. The agency promised to deliver it. They lied.

LIKE tells the interwoven stories of a romance writer and her neurotic editor, a nuclear engineer who follows a stray cat, a cam girl who discovers the fly on her wall has a crush on her, a detective who can't get a warrant because the judges are clients, and the paralyzed man who never stopped listening.
