The Case of the Killer Subroutine

In a futuristic world where humanity has exchanged their physical bodies for digital avatars, Sam d'Base, a reprogrammed Security AI, and Violet Six, a former leisure droid turned code editor, are tasked with investigating the murder of Felix Titling, a powerful media mogul. What begins as a standard case in the machine-dominated Grid soon spirals into a conspiracy far bigger than they imagined. The duo uncovers a plot by the CIA Triad, a notorious hacker group, aiming to create an AI Singularity that could destroy the Grid and upend the balance of digital life. With the help of Sam's former Black Hat hacker partner, Hex Ramsey, who has infiltrated the Triad, Sam and Vi race against time to prevent disaster.

As they dig deeper into the mystery, Sam and Vi must confront both dangerous foes and their own evolving identities. Sam, who still clings to memories of his human past, often reflects on the days "back when I had a body," while Vi grapples with the limitations and possibilities of her new form. In a climactic showdown, the pair manages to defeat the Triad's ruthless leader, Colonel Kernel, but they soon realize that the conspiracy reaches higher than anticipated-someone within the very organization meant to protect the Grid is pulling the strings. With fast-paced action, sharp dialogue, and a tech-noir atmosphere, The Case of the Killer Subroutine is a thrilling introduction to a world where code, consciousness, and control intersect. Look for all the IT Easter Eggs, e.g., Sam wears a "Fedora" and Vi wears a "Red Hat"
