Eve Rios spends her days as a ride-share driver in San Diego the way most recent college graduates would: browsing the internet, snacking in her car, and hoping someone she drives will notice her parents on the missing persons flyers she keeps in her back seat. Meanwhile, everyone in California is going nuts for the roll out of the SAFE and FREND initiative. Robots. Robot nurses, teachers, aid workers, and cops. The cold case of her missing parents is finally picked up, but the one who notices the people on the flyers is an unmarked runaway robot.

I didn't say I was gone
What would happen if emotions became socially unacceptable? If love made people nervous? If laughter drew too much attention? If sadness was hidden to survive? Selene spent her entire life growing up in this society, learning to look unaffected whilst everything explodes inside. Every reaction is observed, measured, and quietly judged before it becomes a problem. In this society, people are rewarded for being obedient, predictable and quiet. She is none of those things. When she begins speaking to someone she was never supposed to find, the conversations feel harmless at first. Then necessary. Then dangerous. The person she finds speaks to the parts of her that the world has taught her to silence, and once she experiences that kind of connection, she cannot stop wanting more of it. But once she tastes the possibility of genuine connection, there's no going back.
