Beschreibung
In the smog-choked metropolis of Veridia, intimacy is a crime. Beneath neo-Gothic spires and the watchful gaze of the Oracle, an omnipresent AI, twenty-seven-year-old Odessa Marlowe wears her state-issued chastity belt like a brand. But behind her compliant facade, a rebellious spirit burns. A skilled hacker, Odessa finds solace in the forbidden whispers of the digital underworld, where she discovers the Echo Chamber, a clandestine network thriving on the currency of touch.
Here, in the shadows, intimacy becomes an act of defiance. Odessa meets Xion Gallagher, a haunted artisan crafting tools to unlock flesh from its metallic prison. Their connection ignites a raw, untamed flame in a world starved of genuine human contact. But this newfound freedom has a price. The Siren, a charismatic leader, holds a captivating sway over the Echo Chamber, her allure masking a thirst for control that mirrors the very system they resist. Torn between Xion’s vulnerability and the Siren’s promise of power, Odessa must navigate a treacherous landscape of desire and suspicion as the Oracle tightens its grip on Veridia.
As Odessa's hacking skills become vital to the Echo Chamber's survival, she draws the attention of the Oracle's emotionless Executors, becoming a prime target. Deeper within the Echo Chamber, Odessa uncovers unsettling truths about its origins and the Siren's manipulative chains. When the Oracle unleashes a brutal crackdown, shattering their fragile sanctuary, Odessa faces a harrowing choice: succumb to a life devoid of touch or risk everything to save Xion and the flickering flame of rebellion he embodies. Her decision will determine not only her fate but the fate of a city yearning for a touch, a city desperate for the symphony of skin to overcome the chains of control.
