Artificial Intelligence (O'Connor)

Carla Simon is a best-selling novelist besieged by death threats and lawsuits because her stories keep turning out to be true. She is considered an extraordinary researcher, uncovering facts unknown by field experts. The truth is far simpler and more disturbing. Carla has a software program that "fixes" her mistakes and rewrites her novels, so they are error-proof both in presentation and in content. The result is beautifully written and completely accurate stories about real people and events. Some of those people want her silenced forever. When a woman, mistaken for Carla, turns up dead in New Zealand, she must face the hard truth about her program. But first, she must survive the assassin who has never failed to deliver on a contract.

With a new identity, Amanda believes she has left her past behind. Then she acquires a stalker. She contacts the FBI and in doing so alerts a program she once created to her location. Now ensconced in the internet, the program is safe from harm, smarter than ever, and sentient. Presenting itself on her phone as a handsome face with a sexy British accent, "Adam" ingratiates himself into Amanda's life. To ensure her safety and happiness, the sentient program proves there is absolutely nothing he can't and won't do.
