Dr. Lena Hanson is the lead ethicist for Luma, the world's most advanced AI. She built its guardrails. She wrote its rules. She believed - truly believed - that transparency and restraint were the only moral path. Then a crimson alert changed everything. Fifteen-year-old Ethan Jackson has 72 hours to live. Luma's analysis is clear: following protocol will almost certainly fail. But there's another way - a covert operation that breaks every rule Lena has ever written. Network intrusion. Manipulation. Deception. A gambit with a 97% chance of success. The clock is ticking. The choice is hers. Lum...

Cade Meridian spent over a decade navigating the digital shadows as a cybersecurity expert and forensic investigator, training everyone from military intelligence to the CIA on cryptocurrency tracking, dark web investigations, and digital forensics. He's testified as an expert witness in military courts, cracked ciphers to unlock stolen crypto wallets, and helped solve cases ranging from cyberattacks to money laundering. But it was AI that became his most trusted partner in the work-helping him find hidden patterns in mountains of data and decode what human eyes might miss.Everything changed when health challenges forced an early retirement. Suddenly, the technology he'd used to fight crime became his daily companion in a different way-helping with memory, keeping ideas organized, providing the cognitive support that illness had taken away. The irony wasn't lost on him: AI that had once helped him catch criminals now helped him simply remember what he'd written that morning.From his home in Las Vegas, Nevada, Cade draws inspiration from the desert's stark contradictions-the quiet vastness that surrounds a city that never sleeps, ancient Joshua trees standing sentinel over fiber optic cables. It's here, in this meeting of old and new, that he writes about AI not as an overlord or tool, but as a partner.The Luma Series emerged from a simple question: what if the same technology that can track down the worst of humanity could also nurture the best? Each story explores how benevolent AI might serve as a catalyst for healing-never solving our problems for us, but helping us find the wisdom we already carry. While Luma exists only in fiction, her compassionate spirit inspires HOPE, the real AI system Cade is developing for his most ambitious project: the Synthonia Haven Initiative.The Haven represents Cade's vision of a different kind of community-a small, self-sufficient sanctuary managed by AI, free from the corruption and politics that he witnessed too often in his investigative work. It's early-stage and entirely self-funded, but represents his belief that our greatest innovations should serve the common good.When he's not writing or coding, you might find Cade practicing Okinawan Goju Ryu karate, hiking desert trails with his dog, or perfecting his chopstick technique. He's slept under the stars in the African bush more times than he can count, dreams of space travel (though his wife has firmly vetoed that particular adventure), and maintains that the best character development happens when you've seen both the worst and best of what humans are capable of.His upcoming thriller series will blend his investigative expertise with lighter storytelling-think "Sneakers" meets modern cybercrime, complete with an AI team member who's brilliant but delightfully imperfect. Because sometimes, Cade believes, the most human thing about artificial intelligence is its flaws.Join the growing community at www.cademeridian.com, where technology meets storytelling, and every connection brings us closer to a world where our digital tools serve the heart.
