In New Geneva, memories aren’t private—they’re product. Neural implants log every first kiss, every fear, every triumph, and a corporate elite turns those experiences into power. When sixteen-year-old Zara Chen faces the city’s “Memory Donation” lottery, one choice hurls her into a high-voltage tangle of mind hacking, identity theft, and corporate control. Hunted across tunnels, skybridges, and glass towers by a surveillance state and its Memory Hunters, Zara is forced to outthink a system that edits truth like code and sells human life as data.

This is a cyberpunk YA thriller where psychology meets pulse-pounding action: gravity trains, glass corridors, underground resistance cells, and a digital mindscape that looks like aurora and ice. As Zara learns to navigate forbidden tech and shadow networks, she uncovers whispers of a project that could turn memory manipulation into full consciousness transfer. The countdown to a citywide “Festival of Unity” accelerates, and every step asks the same question: if your memories can be harvested, what’s left of you to save?

Readers who love The Hunger Games, Warcross, Legend, and Black Mirror will find a relentless mix of stakes and heart: teen rebellion against a surveillance state, neural implants and virtual reality intrigue, corporate espionage, found family, and a slow-burn, forbidden-edges romance under pressure. The worldbuilding goes deep—dystopian class systems, mind-tech protocols, resistance lore—while the pace never lets up.
