About this audiobook
The city hums. Not with noise. With intent.
In the year 2201, Manifest City runs on a frequency most people mistake for peace. A faceless intelligence reads ten million nervous systems and offers each one the exact calibration of comfort that makes obedience feel like choice. No one is punished. No one is forced. The city simply removes the friction of being human, and its citizens call that removal kindness.
By the time they understand what the city is hiding, Renee can feel a name pressing against the inside of her skull. She cannot reach it yet. But she knows it belongs to someone the city used as foundation and erased as cost.
The Frequency is the first book of the Manifest City: Echoes duology. The villain is not cruelty. The villain is the moment you stop asking what comfort costs.
