Meet Shelli, a synthetic investigator that hunts defective and often dangerous machines. In its years of service to Homeland Security, Shelli has never questioned its purpose, never doubted its mission, and never failed in its task. Until now. Partnered with young analyst Jake August, Shelli finds itself wading into deep political waters after a US senator is brutally murdered, presumably by a synthetic. In their search for answers, Shelli and Jake race across America, from Washington DC’s halls of power to the vast, frigid plains of Alaska.

Shelli has a pulse, a heartbeat, and emotions—but she’s not human. Once a government hunter of rogue synthetics, she now hides in plain sight, helping the very machines she used to pursue. However, when a building’s security system is implicated in the deaths of hundreds of people, Shelli is forced back into service. Reunited with Special Agent Jake August, they follow a bloody trail across the country, uncovering a conspiracy with global consequences.

Something terrible haunts the small town of Blackwood, Oregon. Cracks in the earth swallow entire homes. Long-extinct creatures stalk the woods. A putrid, yellow mist reveals gateways to other times and places. At the center of it all, Mrs. Casey Anderson, formally Casey Stevens, must piece together her own forgotten past in hopes of saving the future.

Trapped in the past, Casey Stevens hopes to discover a cure for the machine virus that has infected her. But when Area 51 is attacked by a mysterious threat, the long-dormant ship comes frighteningly back to life. Hunted by soldiers and inhuman creatures through an underground labyrinth, Casey must find a way to survive—by once again entering the ship. Combining the thrills of yesteryear creature features with today's modern scientific theories, author Doug Brode takes the listener down a winding rabbit hole of twists and turns, building to another shocking climax!

Casey Stevens awakens within a crashed alien vessel 35 years after she was abducted. Navigating inverted tunnels, she’s plagued by ghostly apparitions from her past and stalked by a ravenous, mutated experiment gone horribly wrong. When Casey discovers her own body is changing - becoming blotched with grey, scaly patches - she fears she may face the same fate as the once-human creature that now hunts her.
