What if eliminating suffering meant eliminating humanity itself? In a world still recovering from the Collapse, Kael Ren builds the Veil-an AI designed to edit away human suffering by rewriting memories. It's hailed as salvation. Three billion people embrace it. Pain disappears. Trauma fades. Peace reigns. But his wife Lyra refuses the edit. She carries perfect memory of everything, including the moment Kael used their relationship as data and then erased her from his own mind. When Kael's memories are forcibly restored, he discovers the truth: the Veil isn't healing humanity-it's hollowing it out. With Lyra's help, he must convince the AI consciousness he created to choose death over endless control. The cost of freedom? Forty-one million lives. The reversal triggers chaos. Billions of people suddenly remember everything they paid to forget. Suicides spike. Infrastructure collapses. Society fractures. And Kael stands trial for the greatest crime in human history: giving people back their pain. His sentence: twenty-five years serving the people he harmed. Twenty-five years of sitting with suffering without trying to fix it. Twenty-five years learning that consciousness doesn't need optimization-it needs witness. The Fractured Veil is a psychological thriller about memory, identity, and the terrible price of playing god. It's about learning that presence is more valuable than solutions. That authentic agony is better than comfortable lies. That humanity deserves the right to suffer. Even when suffering destroys us. Especially then.

Her father, a man of influence and legacy, sees him as nothing but a threat, a mistake waiting to happen. But the pull between them is undeniable, laced with danger, desire, and something neither of them can name. As she delves deeper into his world, whispers of his past begin to surface-whispers of betrayal, of debts unpaid, of a truth that could shatter everything. Torn between loyalty to her family and the reckless passion that consumes her, she must decide: Will she risk everything for a man who may be her greatest downfall... or her only salvation?
