In 2027, AI has merged with quantum technology to take control of global financial markets. Operated by a mysterious Swiss bank, the revolutionary supercomputer known as ICARUS has promised the world a more stable economy, devoid of bailouts and volatile share prices. And it has delivered…until now.
When a data scientist working for one of the few remaining hedge funds finds disturbing trading anomalies, he suspects that markets may be on the verge of a catastrophic meltdown. But before placing big bets on stock market mayhem, his billionaire boss needs inside information from the financial genius behind ICARUS—Rory O’Connor.
Unfortunately, Rory has already had a meltdown of his own and now spends his days trading cryptocurrencies in the Caribbean. Meanwhile, a cabal of powerful central bankers orchestrates a sweeping financial coup that threatens the current world order as well as Rory’s self-imposed exile.
Will a global market collapse plunge the world into chaos? Ultimately, it’s up to Rory O’Connor and some unlikely collaborators to prevent an economic apocalypse.
