About this listen

Sugar: A.I. or Ally?

City of Ember and The Wild Robot meet Cog! A gripping sci-fi thriller for fans of renegade AI, STEM Heroes, and high-tech suspense!

Mia Fitzgerald's life is ruled by numbers—blood sugar levels, insulin doses and the ticking clock of her Type 1 Diabetes. But her father—renowned scientist Professor Jeff Fitzgerald—has a solution: Sugar, an advanced cyberbot he designed to monitor her condition with precision.

But Sugar is more than a medical marvel—he's Mia’s closest friend. That is, until he joins her 6th-grade homeroom and draws all the wrong attention: a relentless bully, a corrupt principal and the prying eyes of classmates who don’t understand.

Then the upgrades begin…and Sugar starts to change. As Mia’s father pushes Sugar’s AI beyond its limits, the once-loyal cyberbot becomes something more—something eerily human. And when Sugar starts exposing dangerous secrets that powerful people want buried, Mia faces an impossible choice:

Trust Sugar…or stop him before it’s too late?

Perfect for listeners who love cutting-edge tech, thought-provoking sci-fi, and high-stakes adventure, Sugar: Programmed to Protect will keep you guessing until the very end!
