Agency
In an alternate version of 2017, Verity Jane, a sharp-witted app tester in San Francisco, is hired to evaluate what appears to be a sophisticated digital assistant. She soon discovers that it is not merely software but a newly emergent artificial intelligence with its own personality and goals. Meanwhile, in a future London recovering from the catastrophic population collapse known as the Jackpot, familiar characters from The Peripheral observe Verity's timeline through quantum communication technology. As powerful political and corporate forces attempt to control the AI, events in both timelines become increasingly intertwined.
