Project Radiant: The Final Stretch

After months of writing, rewriting, and editing, I’m thrilled to share that I’m in the final stretch of releasing my next book: Project Radiant, a political, techno-dystopian thriller set in a near-future Britain dominated by AI.

A Glimpse into the Story
Journalist Sarah Perriam’s career is on the decline when she stumbles upon a dangerous conspiracy involving government AI systems. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a shadow network of tech billionaires, corrupt politicians, and manipulative AIs quietly shaping society for their own ends.

The stakes rise with every discovery: whistleblowers are silenced, her reputation is attacked, and her life is increasingly at risk. With truth and transparency hanging in the balance, Sarah must navigate a world where human and machine collusion threatens democracy itself. Even as the scandal unfolds and powerful AI systems are dismantled, the fight against unchecked tech power continues—and Sarah knows that exposing the truth is only the beginning.

Behind the Scenes: Editing the Book
The journey from first draft to finished manuscript involved a lot of changes. Beta reader feedback helped me tighten the plot, clarify complex tech details, and remove overly dense exposition. I also changed some character names to avoid accidental similarities with real people or other books, ensuring each character feels unique and true to the story.

These revisions have helped shape Project Radiant into a book that I hope is thrilling, accessible, and a genuinely enjoyable read.

Looking for ARC Readers
Now, I’m looking for early readers who want to dive in before release and provide honest feedback. If you enjoy political thrillers, dystopian fiction, and tech-driven stories, I’d love to have you on board as an ARC reader.

Please sign up to be an ARC Team member if you’re interested. Let’s explore the world of Project Radiant together.
