A group of employees and their CEO celebrating the sale of their remarkable
emotion-mapping-AI-algorithm crash onto a not-quite-deserted tropical island. Luckily those
who survived have found a beautiful fully-stocked private palace with all the latest
technological updates (though one without connection to the outside world). The house however
has more secrets than anyone might have guessed and a much darker reason for having been built
and left behind. Kristen the hyper-competent "chief emotional manager" (a position created by
her eccentric boyish billionaire boss Sumter) is trying to keep her colleagues stable
throughout this new challenge but staying sane seems to be as much of a challenge as staying
alive. Being a woman in tech has always meant having to be smarter than anyone expects--and
Kristen's knack for out-of-the-box problem-solving and quick thinking has gotten her to the top
of her field. But will a killer instinct be enough to survive the island? A gleefully
decadent near future whodunit from Madeline Ashby the acclaimed futurist and author of Company
Town --perfect for fans of Severance The White Lotus and Black Mirror .
