In 2041, a lab detects a low-frequency pulse that precedes every human act-a "divine readiness field." Theology erupts, courts stall, and a new sect worships accuracy over freedom. Neurosurgeon-turned-theorist Dr. Eleanor Wu and fork-debugging philosopher Lev Ari dive into the fault line between doing and narrating, uncovering forged permissions, hollow acts, and the terrifying possibility of agency without an agent.
As black-market machines counterfeit intention and governments legislate signal literacy, the categories of guilt, authorship, and even memory implode. The Occasionalist Chronicles fuses hard SF, neurophilosophy, and theological thriller into a shattered mirror of what it means to act when the script might not be yours.
