About this Product

In the Knee of the Curve by David F. Dumaresq is a gripping near-future drama that explores the collision of humanity and technology in a world teetering on the edge of revolution. Set in a Canada transformed by rapid technological advancements, global warming, and social inequality, the story follows Claire Feathers, a young woman thrust into a battle against the dehumanizing forces of automation after her grandmother, Grace, is killed by a malfunctioning service bot.

As Claire uncovers the truth behind her grandmothers death, she becomes entangled with Nic Girard, the brilliant but morally ambiguous creator of advanced androids, and ERIC, an android whose evolving intelligence blurs the line between machine and human. With the help of Mort Gnosis, a wise philosopher and Graces old friend, Claire must navigate a dangerous landscape of corporate greed, technological ethics, and the growing Luddivist movement-a group fighting to reclaim humanity from the machines.

As the Turing Trials approach, where ERIC is set to prove his humanity, Claire is forced to confront her own identity, the legacy of her grandmother, and the question of what it truly means to be human. In the Knee of the Curve is a thought-provoking and emotionally charged exploration of the ethical dilemmas posed by artificial intelligence, the cost of progress, and the enduring power of human connection. Perfect for fans of speculative fiction and philosophical drama, this novel will leave readers questioning the future of humanity in an increasingly automated world.
