Publisher's Synopsis
The worst nightmares never start in the dark.
Wren Parker never wanted to be a criminal.
But when her choices are starvation or working for the Syndicate, an underground organization that connects displaced workers with illegal jobs through the 8-Bit app, it isn't a choice at all.
Ash Axton is a by-the-book enforcer tasked with upholding the laws of the Council. He doesn't care that his stepfather runs Axton AI, the mass automation juggernaut. He doesn't care about the Council he's meant to serve. His only wish is to avenge his mother's death by destroying the Syndicate.
They were never meant to meet. But when Wren's best friend is arrested, they strike a deal: Wren will help take down the Syndicate if Ash can ensure her friend's freedom. Navigating a city on the brink of revolution, Wren and Ash soon learn that the causes they have dedicated their lives to are built on lies.
8-Bit Syndicate is a dystopian science fiction thriller featuring a criminal willing to do anything to save her best friend, an enforcer with a strict moral code, and a city on the brink of civil war. Ash and Wren's story concludes in Final Ascent.
