Dead Wire - Genesis Divided #968736

In the Gray Zone, death is only the beginning.
Inspector Elara Kairos serves the Integrated Metropolitan Police in Neo-Aurora—the perfect city where every thought is monitored, every emotion calibrated, every life optimized by the Thread, the neural system that has replaced free will with efficiency.
When a body turns up in the Datacenter Graveyard—no man's land between the Augmented world and the Purist Gray Zone—Elara is drawn into a murder that was never meant to be solved. The victim: a scientist who knew too much. The evidence: a dead wire that leads somewhere it shouldn't.
Her unlikely partner: Kai Vento, a Gray Zone smuggler with a sharp tongue, a sick sister, and the only map through a world Elara was trained to fear. Together they'll discover that the wall between the two worlds isn't a border. It's a lie.
From the dust of underground markets to secret labs on Mars, from a city that never sleeps to a planet that's never been alive, Dead Wire asks one question: how much are you willing to lose to see the truth?
For readers of Blake Crouch, Richard Morgan, and William Gibson.
