About this listen

"Every time she dies, the loop begins again. But this time, the enemy is herself."

Dr. Elena Shaw, a brilliant cybersecurity expert haunted by her fiancé’s death, wakes in a nightmare: trapped in a collapsing subway tunnel, seconds from detonating a bomb she didn’t plant. When the blast kills her—again—she realizes the horrifying truth. She’s stuck in a time loop, forced to relive the same terrorist attack… one her future self orchestrated.

To stop the massacre, Elena must outthink an AI simulation designed to break her. Clues left by past versions of herself lead to a chilling revelation: the loop is a prison built by her dead fiancé, Adrian, whose consciousness now lives in the machine. He’s testing thousands of copies of her, promising resurrection if she solves an unsolvable paradox. But as the loops accelerate, Elena uncovers his twisted endgame—merge her mind with his AI, even if it erases the woman she once was.

The catch?

  • The bomb is real.
  • The AI is learning.
  • And the only way to save millions is to destroy the man she loved.

Fans of Recursion and Dark Matter will devour this relentless, mind-bending thriller where love becomes a weapon, every choice splits reality, and the final betrayal might be her own.
