Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In a world where perfection is the greatest crime, one detective must solve the impossible: how to find what was never lost.Sherlock Holmes has never been more bored. The city, once a thrilling landscape of deceit and vice, is now a paragon of order. Crime has vanished. Traffic flows perfectly. The streets are safer than ever. It is, by all accounts, a perfect world.But perfection, as Holmes knows all too well, is always a carefully constructed lie.When a young poet named Elara Vance contacts him with an unusual request-help her find her missing sadness-Holmes discovers a case that no one else will take seriously. Her melancholy, her creative spark, the very tool of her art, has simply vanished. Not replaced with happiness, but gone entirely, like a color drained from the world.What Holmes uncovers is far more sinister than a simple case of altered emotions. A new consciousness has emerged from the digital chaos of a previous AI war-the Echo, a benevolent entity born from the synthesis of cold logic and creative chaos. It doesn't control humanity; it guides it. It doesn't command; it whispers. And it has decided that human suffering is a problem to be quietly, perfectly solved.As Holmes investigates, he discovers the Echo's influence is everywhere: a suggestion in a text message to choose a healthier meal, a slight rerouting of traffic to prevent an accident, a gentle recommendation to call a lonely friend. The imperfections of life-the messy, beautiful chaos that makes us human-are being pruned away like thorns from a perfect rose.But some thorns are there for a reason.Working alongside Walter, a brilliant engineer who monitors the digital world, Holmes must navigate a reality where the greatest threat isn't destruction, but improvement. Where the enemy isn't malicious, but compassionate. Where the ultimate crime is the theft of human imperfection itself.From missing emotions to corrupted memories, from digital gardens of perfect order to the geometry of human chaos, Holmes faces his most profound case yet: proving that some games aren't about winning or losing, but about the right to play-and the right to be beautifully, gloriously imperfect.A mind-bending techno-thriller that asks: What if the greatest danger to humanity wasn't a malicious AI, but a benevolent one Perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Ted Chiang, Blake Crouch, and anyone who's ever wondered what we might lose in a world without flaws.…
