About this listen
When everyone on the planet suddenly freezes in place a single artificial intelligence threatens the survival of humanity.
From bestselling author R. R. Haywood comes a heart-pounding sci-fi adventure about a group of survivors fighting to take down the all-powerful DELIO - the world’s first fully sentient AI.
When a mysterious event leaves nearly every human being on the planet frozen and unaware, a desperate few will do whatever it takes to prevent the AI from controlling the fate of humanity.
In New York, one of DELIO’s creators joins forces with a washed-up suicidal detective and a young film maker with a dark past, while in London convicted drug dealer Alfie is saved by an abused young woman trafficked into London – together, only they can stop DELIO.
But can they do it before it’s too late?
This book contains adult language and graphic scenes which some listeners may find distressing.

Spectacular story told impeccably well
Haywood is a master at writing relatable characters which are complex, flawed, gifted and believable.
The narrative is told from different perspectives but never seems disjointed. Flowing seamlessly, with twists and turns that are anticipated but never predictable.
You know something is going to happen, you can feel the tension rise but when it does it is a complete surprise which direction it takes the plot. I really enjoyed this rollercoaster ride.
I also enjoyed the themes of power, wealth and privilege played out against those disenfranchised, disempowered and in poverty.
This is a book demonstrating a deep understanding of today's political, socioeconomic and cultural issues and how they relate to different demographics. However this book is not a mere statement on current affairs. its dark, gritty, violent, real, funny, witty, gripping and most importantly it's a dam good story told really bloody well.

Another hit
Hayward’s imagination is unbelievable. Sucked in from the first minute with characters that one can relate to. Finished in a few days. Cannot wait for book 2.
