The guy next door acquires the world's most advanced AI, thrusting him into a dangerous web of power, intrigue, and global consequences, where his every decision could reshape the future.

With technology moving so fast, "Overclocked" could be set in the near future or it could be now. It's the gripping tale of Mikey, a young IT technician who just can't seem to string together any good luck. Taking a job working for the secretive XXSUGARSWEET996XX, he hopes to work just hard enough to keep his parents off the streets.

But when his employer suddenly finds herself on the run, she entrusts him with her crowning achievement. Artificial Cognitive Technology for Interactive Operations and Networking (or ACTION for short) is the most advanced A.I. on the planet. He quickly finds with a few key strokes, ACTION will shape the real world around him. Will he use it for good or will he use it for something else entirely?
