Never Laura Ewgeniya Lyras 9781804470381

A mysterious suicide pandemic sweeps the world, leaving nations reeling, pointing fingers. Losing her parents to the tragedy as a child, Laura makes a failed attempt to take her own life, and suffers at the hands of those cast as her protectors. Fourteen years later, still trying to escape her pain, she meets a powerful entrepreneur whose groundbreaking technology offers the ultimate freedom - a soul-flight. Tempted by the promise, she strikes a deal that will change her life for ever. Laura soon discovers that the soul-flight is not quite what it seems, and she is no longer in control of her mind, the confines of her body and the outside world starting to blur. To regain control of herself, Laura must travel into dimensions previously inaccessible and uncover a past she never knew she had. A powerful, thought-provoking tale set in a world transformed by technology, Never Laura is a startling work in which the dance between humanity and artificial intelligence challenges the very essence of who we are.
