Thomas Nelson Read Kindle PreviewA grieving young widow. The AI program that allows her to continue to βtalkβ to her husband. And a message she never expected: βI think I was murdered.β Just a year ago, Katrina Berg was at the pinnacle of her career. She was a rising star in the AI chatbot start-up everyone was talking about, married with an adoring husband, and had more money than she knew how to spend. Then her world combusted. Her husΒband, Jason, was killed in a fiery car crash. Her CEO was indicted and, as the companyβs legal counsel, Katrina faces tough questions as the Feds take over and lock her out of her office. The final blow is the passing of her beloved grandmother. Her most prized possession is the beta prototype for a new, ultra-sophisticated chatbot loaded onto her phone. The contents of Jasonβs email, social media backups, pictures, and every bit of data she could find were loaded into the bot, and Katrina has βtalkedβ to him every day for the past six months. She has been amazed at how well it works. Even the syntax and words the bot uses sound like Jason. Sometimes, she imagines he isnβt really dead and is right there beside her. She knows itβs slowing her grief recovery, but she canβt stop pretending. On a particularly bad day, she taps out: Tell me something I donβt know. The cursor blinks for several moments and seems frozen before the reply flashes quickly onto the screen: I think I was murdered. Distraught, Katrina returns to her cozy Norwegian-flavored hometown in the Northern California redwoods and enlists the help of Seb Wallace, local restaurateur and longtime acquaintance, to try to parse out the truth of what really happened. They must navigate the complicated paths of grief, family dynamics, and second chances, as well as the complex questions of how much control technology has. And staying alive long enough to do that is far more difficult than either of them dreamed. Start Reading I THINK I WAS MURDERED Now
