Gaia's Daughters

In a city where artificial intelligence (AI) is driving widespread unemployment and unrest, Vijay, a technician at the Mercury Theatre, is given the chance to become the face and leader of a new rebellion. Vijay’s close friend, Ron, is hired by an AI, and sees no risk in the AI dominance in the workplace.

As Jennifer continues her quest to understand the message of the black panther, an old threat arises. A desperate act by Jennifer forces her to confront her past or risk losing Vijay. In the background, civic unrest grows and Vijay is established as the face of the new resistance. A battle arises in the AI world with humans left as bystanders unable to help. Confronted on all sides, Jennifer feels driven to challenge Gaia directly with a result that no one saw coming.

Even as Vijay's revolution is becoming more successful, Jennifer finds herself dragged deeper in the world of the AIs and Gaia, urged to take on a role that could be the end of her. Increasingly desperate, she turns to those around her to try and keep from the madness she feels coming on.
