Lonely Nights on High Rooftops

"Lonely Nights on High Rooftops is the cyberpunk of today." - Jake Reads Books ***** Harlow is a young widower who has turned his back on tech, working at a retirement home and his friend‘s arcade just to get by. The world is fractured, the corporate regime ruthless, and the only escape for most people is Neuroreality, a virtual space where desires and frustrations play out. When Harlow finds his neighbor Rose unresponsive in her tricked-out dentistry chair, he unwittingly steps back into a world he thought he‘d left behind. Her guttural scream from a hack-induced coma marks the start of a high-stakes cyberpunk techno-thriller: a chase that will take them through corporate conspiracies, AI manipulation, and deadly secrets. Together, Harlow and Rose must navigate dangerous enemies, shadowy allies, and the dark consequences of grief and loss, confronting not just a corporate regime but their own pasts. To survive - and find a semblance of family - Harlow will have to plug back in, face old demons, and fight a system built to control humanity itself. Perfect for readers of Neal Stephenson, William Gibson, and fast-paced dystopian sci-fi with twists of suspense and cyberpunk action.
