A female programmer is one of the few “Analogs” left — she doesn’t have a THRISPR neuro-link chip. Soon THRISPR will be required and with the dystopian reality closing in, she must face her nihilism & claim her destiny in an intricate deliverance plot.
Everybody loves a good sc-fi conspiracy and THRISPR is one that is relevant to the modern technological atmosphere, fantasizing headlines like AI, StarLink, microchip implants, the endangerment of the freedom of the internet, boundaries between tech and government and technology addiction.
