At present, I’m working on my debut novel; a speculative dystopian sci-fi adventure featuring a family of four, set in a near-future United States of America, centring around a unique and ubiquitous technology, with political undertones. When the NAURA™ device is compromised, civilian privacy is at risk — it’s up to Eleonora and family to make things right.

A near-future dystopian sci-fi adventure

Follow My Journey

I’m building a speculative dystopian world inspired by the current state of our world. Read the blurb and scroll to see the themes of Fallout Protocol below. Drop me a follow to help an emerging author battle the algorithms!

When democracy falls and technology becomes the battlefield, reclaiming the mind requires more than just survival.

In a dystopian near-future where society has collapsed under an attack on democracy, a militant dictatorship has risen from the corruption of the ubiquitous cybernetic implant: NAURA™. In an instant, nineteen-year-old Eleonora’s predictable world of routine, structure, and carefully anchored order crumbles. Overwhelmed by a sensory landscape descended into chaos, she faces the agony of adapting to a hostile world where safety no longer exists.

Her father, Raymond, invented the implant to preserve human memories, but now civilians are under direct influence and psychological control. When Eleonora’s family is forced to flee on an unexpected journey across the fractured country, dark questions emerge: Why are her parents insisting they run? Was the attack truly unforeseen? What secrets are they hiding from their own children?

Learning who they can and cannot trust, the family fights to survive together, vowing to take back the tech, return power to the people, and topple the tyrant behind the fall of society.

Told through multiple perspectives, witness the fallout of a new kind of war and confront the perils of over-reliance on technology, the abuse of power, and the sacrifice of privacy in the modern world.

How far would you go to protect humanity and freedom in a world where even your own memories could be weaponised against you?
