About the Book
In a near-future Africa where technology hums beneath the surface of ancient traditions, the past is no longer just remembered—it is recorded, measured, and verified. But what happens when memory itself becomes a battleground?
Through the eyes of Ayo, we enter a world where data governs destiny, and certainty is currency. As cities rise and borders shift under the weight of climate migration, Ayo must navigate a delicate balance—between progress and heritage, between innovation and the quiet wisdom of oral storytelling. In the relentless pursuit of truth, what is lost in translation?
Blending Afrofuturism, speculative fiction, and the enduring power of ancestral narratives, this book is more than a story—it is an exploration of the very fabric of identity. As the digital and the human collide, it asks fundamental questions:
- Technology remembers, but stories endure – When AI can validate memories, does lived experience still matter?
- Borders are shifting, and so are identities – What happens to those caught between homes, histories, and futures?
- Truth is both a weapon and a refuge – In a time of digital certainty, can the most profound truths exist beyond verification?
Through Ayo’s journey, you will be drawn into the delicate balance between the cold precision of data and the boundless depths of human emotion. This is not just a novel—it is an invitation to question what it means to bear witness, to remember, and to belong.
Are you ready to step into a future where memory is currency, and truth is never simple?
Join the journey. Read, reflect, and step into a future shaped by the echoes of the past.
