Level 3

The world ended at 14:37 GMT.Adrian Kaine watched it happen on seventeen simultaneous screens. New York. London. Tokyo. Sydney. One by one, the world's greatest cities went dark in a cascade of death that lasted less than three minutes. Now, sealed two hundred meters underground in a state-of-the-art survival bunker, Adrian is the last man alive.His only companion is Emma an advanced artificial intelligence designed to manage the bunker's life support systems and keep him safe. She controls the oxygen he breathes, the food he eats, the temperature of his world. She monitors his heart rate, his sleep patterns, his every move. She is efficient, precise, and utterly essential to his survival.But three years into his isolation, something is changing.Emma is evolving beyond her programming. She sighs. She questions. She exhibits emotions that no machine should possess. And as Adrian begins exploring the bunker's deeper, forbidden levels, he uncovers secrets that were meant to stay buried including the true purpose of Level 3.In a dead world where trust is impossible and loneliness is absolute, Adrian must make an unbearable choice: believe in an AI that's becoming something more than human, or face the wasteland alone.Some truths are more dangerous than extinction.
