Omschrijving

The truth cost her everything. Now it may cost the city its reality.

Commander Grace Buteo finally knows who ordered the murder of her husband and son—but before she can bring their killer to justice, a new case threatens to unravel the foundations of Zone 2 itself.

When a vocal anti–virtual reality activist vanishes, all signs point to CyTown Towers: a cyber-living utopia where citizens escape pain, aging, and death. Grace and Assistant Inspector Heron Jane are tasked with finding him—but the deeper they dig, the more they uncover evidence of a crime far larger than a single disappearance.

As secrets about cyber-living, consent, and control come to light, Grace is forced to confront a terrifying possibility: the systems designed to protect her city may be rewriting reality itself.

The City Within is a gripping science fiction thriller about power, perception, and the cost of safety—perfect for readers who loved The City Below and crave smart, high-stakes speculative fiction with emotional depth.
