BOOK 1 OF THE ALGO TRILOGY
THE ALGO
PERFECTION IS MANDATORY. FREEDOM IS A GLITCH.
In 2045 Denver, a single efficiency score determines how citizens live. Jordan Reese has devoted her career to perfecting the algorithm behind it. She has never had a reason to question it.
When she discovers a flaw she was never meant to find, that belief becomes the most dangerous thing she carries. Navigating a double life as colleagues vanish and betrayal hides inside the ranks she is learning to trust, Jordan must decide what she is willing to risk to reclaim a part of herself the algorithm helped her forget.
In a world where doubt is data and every quiet question leaves a record, thinking for yourself is a risk.
THE ALGO is a near-future thriller about efficiency, grief, and what the system decides you are worth. Dystopian speculative fiction for the age of algorithmic society.

A wake-up call to humanity. Impossible to put down.
WHAT WOULD THE SYSTEM SAY ABOUT YOU?
There is no official Joint Nexus Administration. But there are efficiency scores. There are algorithms that shape your choices before you make them. There are systems that measure what you produce and have strong opinions about what you could produce instead.
I built this assessment so you could feel what it might be like to live inside one. Three questions. A preliminary classification. The full assessment is at jointnexus.com.
