Robots have become a modern staple.
The Big Three, three mega-robotics companies, have set up a monopolistic control of the worldwide robotics market, selling everything from the most basic, task-oriented units to androids, the humanlike metallic jacks-of-all-trades.
And then there is Veda.
She's young and the most gifted robotics engineer the world has ever seen. And the only thing about her equal to her intelligence with robotics is her reclusiveness. Unwilling to be recruited by the underhanded Big Three and turned into a researching and developing slave, Veda has hidden herself from the world since she could learn how to build a circuit. In her home, she has tinkered and built robots that the world has never known.....
But when a good friend of hers and a Head Roboticist at one of the Big Three goes missing and foul-play is suspected, a detective named Andrew comes to her door, hoping to get some information about this disappearance. What he finds is not the solution to a mystery, but a world of mechanical engineering that delves into the realms of taboo so deeply that he is caught up in the conspiracy of it all.
And more important than the task he originally set out to complete, Andrew meets a miraculous creation, something so new and different that it could change the world, or even the course of human history.
His name is Sam.

Virtual Reality Rebels
"In the not-so-distant future, where the boundaries between the real world and the virtual one blur into obscurity, a group of audacious teenagers dares to defy the status quo. Welcome to a world where pixels are the new reality, and the metaverse is king. Meet Alex, a tech-savvy misfit with a rebellious spirit, who stumbles upon a hidden secret that could shatter the digital illusion. It all starts innocently enough with a glitch in the code, a whisper of something amiss in the flawless façade of their virtual existence. But as the anomaly beckons, curiosity turns to obsession, and Alex can't resist the urge to unravel the truth. Joined by a diverse crew of fellow hackers, gamers, and digital outlaws, they embark on an electrifying quest to pierce the veil of the virtual world. Along the way, they'll encounter enigmatic AIs, navigate treacherous dungeons, and unearth cryptic messages left by a shadowy figure known only as "The Architect." As the lines between their augmented reality and the tangible one blur, they must confront a stark reality: some secrets are better left buried in the code. The future of humanity hangs in the balance, and the clock is ticking. But in a world where the digital and physical collide, where virtual friends become real allies, Alex and their companions are about to discover that their rebellion against the virtual regime has far-reaching consequences they could never have imagined. Will they unveil the ultimate truth, or will the digital realm consume them before they can break free? One thing's for sure: The revolution begins here."Cerita Lengkap
The Edge of Darkness
"I did not choose to become this way. This corrupted, innocent body. Who in their right mind would willingly choose this life?" Max is just one of thousands of unwilling cyborgs sent home after the interstellar war. With the threat of recycling haunting her every move, she can't even touch the only bright spot in her life: strong, handsome Ethan. Love means nothing to a cyborg - they're not even human. The robotics makes them incapable of love. They can not marry. They cannot raise children. So why does Max's heart race when she meets Ethan again on the long journey home? Why does his forbidden touch feel so good, and set her blood burning? And why are so many cyborgs recycled when they are otherwise healthy and able to perform their work? With the strange alien Authorities watching every move, Max uncovers a conspiracy bigger than the war than enslaved her in the first place. To find an escape from the horrific nightmare that her transport spaceship home has become, Max must race to find the answers and save the people she cares about, before her world and everything she knows is lost to darkness. The Edge of Darkness was first published in 2011 and is available in complete e-book form and paperback on both Smashwords and Amazon.

FRACTURE CODE
In a world where intelligence is currency and secrets are traded like weapons, five prodigies from different fields are pulled into a covert task force no one is supposed to know exists. Eli Drayton, a haunted hacker with no memory of his early childhood and a lifetime on the run, builds code faster than most people can think. Mira Chen, a mechanical genius abandoned by her family's pride, builds machines with heart but struggles to connect to people. Dev Patel, a mathematical savant with crippling anxiety, sees the world in equations but trusts no one. Lena Rosario, a psychology and language expert, can unravel lies with a glance but is haunted by the fear she doesn't belong. And Cam Torres, a photographic-memoried former Olympic champion, hides a broken spine behind bulletproof precision and wit. Together, they form Phantom-an underground problem-solving unit that tackles puzzles no agency can crack. From cyberterrorism to biochemical sabotage, from runaways to runaway trains, each mission pushes them closer to the truth: someone is watching them. And not just watching-pulling strings. As personal secrets begin to unravel and the missions grow deadlier, the team must face a terrifying possibility: The most dangerous enemy... might be the one who brought them together. --- Would you like an alternate version with a more mystery or thriller tone? Or maybe a title variation with symbolic weight? This story was inspired from the hit TV Series---SCORPIONS.Cerita Lengkap

COGNITIVE BIAS
She doesn't carry a badge. Just the truth everyone else misses. When a triple homicide confounds Metro PD, intern Nova Reyes stumbles onto the case-and rewrites the narrative in under twenty minutes. The crime wasn't a random break-in. It was a perfectly calculated manipulation of perception, buried beneath layers of misdirection. And Nova saw right through it. Armed with an eidetic memory, a background in neuroscience, and a mind trained to untangle patterns others can't even see, Nova is pulled into the world of criminal investigation. But she's not chasing obvious suspects. She's tracing thought errors-the invisible flaws in logic that lead people to kill. But for every case Nova solves, her own mystery deepens. Whispers from her past surface. An unsolved crime she's tried to forget claws its way back. Because the most dangerous patterns aren't just found in others. Sometimes... they live inside you.Cerita Lengkap

Little Blue World
Rebecca is in her natural setting. After heading to MIT for college, she has moved to New York. She works at an energy company and is currently working on Project Tours. While heading out for an afternoon walk, before her evening tea, her and her friend Amelia discuss a fun outting with writer friend, Jazmine. Rebecca decides that she has work to do, and does not attend. While waiting for Jazmine, Amelia finds that she has gone missing. And who do they call? The new Watson and Sherlock Holmes of the century. Genius detective Benedict Cumberbrunch (Pun intended) and his intelligent associate Sarah Dragon. ****PRAISE FOR LITTLE BLUE WORLD**** "I am knocking, ringing, pounding, ringing, knocking, pounding, ringing, yelling, ringing, pounding, and screaming at you to finish the next chapter." ~Endpie, author of Curls, and 37 Days "YAAAAAAA...Y! I LIKe!" ~AxisBeyondTheNorth, author of Challenge "I am not a sociopath." ~Benedict Cumberbrunch, author of Everybody But INTJs, Don't Be Stupid, and The Art Of Deduction Genre: There are few cultural references such as Benedict Cumberbrunch being modeled after Benedict Cumberbatch and Sherlock Holmes. This story is not a fan fiction nor a humor. While there is comedic relief, that is most definitely not the motive of the story. The story is a drama and mystery/thriller. Rating: The story does describe crimes. No details more than Law and Order: SVU. Barely that descriptive. **So in basic, I wrote a crime book thats fictional. I say that its fictional because I don't want people thinking that Benedict Cumberbatch is my best friend or that I actually lived such an experience.** This book is dedicated to the women and men that have died in the police force. This book is also dedicated to the families and actual women, men, and children victimized by violent crime. Also, to those who suffer from a mental illness.Cerita Lengkap
