When Martha Einkorn fled her father’s isolated
compound in Oregon, she never expected to find herself
working for a powerful social media mogul hell-bent on
controlling everything. Now, she’s surrounded by
mega-rich companies designing private weather, predictive
analytics, and covert weaponry, while spouting technological
prophecy. Martha may have left the cult, but if the
apocalyptic warnings in her father’s fox and rabbit
sermon—once a parable to her—are starting to
come true, how much future is actually left?
Across the world, in a mall in Singapore, Lai Zhen, an
internet-famous survivalist, flees from an assassin.
She’s cornered, desperate and—worst of
all—might die without ever knowing what's going on.
Suddenly, a remarkable piece of software appears on her
phone telling her exactly how to escape. Who made it? What
is it really for? And if those behind it can save her from
danger, what do they want from her, and what else do they
know about the future?
Martha and Zhen’s
worlds are about to collide. An explosive chain of events is
set in motion. While a few billionaires assured of their own
safety lead the world to destruction, Martha’s
relentless drive and Zhen’s insatiable curiosity could
lead to something beautiful or the cataclysmic end of
civilization.
By turns thrilling, hilarious,
tender, and always piercingly brilliant, The Future
unfolds at a breakneck speed, highlighting how power
corrupts the few who have it and what it means to stand up
to them. The future is coming. The
Future is here.
