Space Bar

By Lim, Eugene

First published 2027

"In a near-future shaped by artificial intelligence and immersive virtual worlds, the lives of three strangers collide, with consequences none of them can predict. Yoojin Im is a struggling writer who makes a shocking discovery: a manuscript he believed lost has been published as the posthumous masterpiece of his literary idol, Jane Kim. Before he can expose the fraud, he's drawn into a secret project run by Kim's surviving partner who is helping to train a powerful AI known as Frank Exit, a virtual world that is rapidly becoming indistinguishable from reality. Elsewhere, people are vanishing. Inspector River is racing to solve a string of disappearances while battling "Space Plague," a mysterious condition that is slowly erasing his memory. At the same time, in the digital realm, a figure known only as Space Detective searches for a missing girl, Donna Winters. But the deeper he goes, the less clear it becomes whether he is tracking a single disappearance or tracing the outlines of something much larger, linking the lost across realities.
