What to expect
What if a murdered man could bring his murderers to justice?
In 2024 Elon Musk announced the first computer-brain implant.
In 2068 the first mind transplant becomes possible. Immortality is a reality.
Except for Morgan Adams, it’s not that simple.
Adams is a prodigy, the chief scientist and co-founder of the world’s wealthiest corporation. Tomorrow he’ll reveal his most ambitious undertaking: a secret project called Doppelgänger that will enable him to download a human mind into an identical cyborg body. But that morning he awakens to a shocking reality—he is standing over his own lifeless body, tortured and broken on a cold laboratory floor. Morgan is the disbelieving beta version of his own unfinished creation, a Doppelgänger. The source code has been stolen and Morgan’s consciousness is degrading fast! He has 72 hours to find his own murders, recover the code, and fight a conspiracy so vast it threatens the entire human race.
Doppelganger is a riveting futuristic thriller where artificial intelligence make reality so fractured it is nearly impossible to know what is true and what isn’t. It explores the clash between machines and human passion, evil, love, trust and time. Even after the last sentence you’ll wonder what is real and what isn’t.
