The Alice Yu Series [2055-2065AD]

Cyberpunk Crime Thrillers from the Future of New York

In 2055 New York, artificial intelligence has hollowed out the economy, human labor is nearly worthless, and survival depends on who controls the systems.

The Alice Yu novels and novellas follow a former UN Marine turned NYPD officer through a city of abandoned districts, corporate power, organized crime, illegal human copies, machine intelligence, and social collapse.

These are fast-moving, hard-edged cyberpunk thrillers about crime, loyalty, violence, artificial intelligence, and the people left behind by technological progress.
