My good friend R. Sinclair has recently been announced as a finalist for the BBNYA 2026 Awards for her sci-fi thriller novel Fracture! BLURB Most people would kill to escape death row. Meredith Dufresne – marked as ‘compliant and charming’ and a ‘low risk inmate’ in her stellar incarceration record, thank you very much – signs her life over to Thanatos Industries instead for the chance to terminate her sentence. The job: taming a highly aggressive, malignant AI. The catch: it’s already killed 23 of its previous hosts. Meredith isn’t stupid.

But Doran has more to deal with than getting stabbed and a city-wide lockdown that’s seeing his gang of ex-miners slowly starved out of their base.

The duology follows con-artist convict Meredith Dufresne, who teams up with the AI "V" jammed into her head to go on the run from shady mega-corporation Thanatos Industries/Varro Technologies and the unnerving, predatory Mr Smith. I've previously raved about how much I loved the first book, …

The series is a queer dystopian sci fi with morally grey characters, a technologically advanced world, a galactic tyrant with immortal goons, an underground rebellion, an AI with snark, and an immortal criminal who’s the lynchpin. The blurb for Book 1, and the cover reveal, are below the cut!

A Doomed Love. An Inexorable Law. An impending war and buried secrets. Keylin, daughter of Lord Giles, goes from a noblewoman about to be married to the love of her life to a slave, owning not even her own person. The laws of Castrial are binding, and even nobles are not exempt from it. The man who has brought her father to justice is also the man who owns Keylin: Alaric, the Shield of Castrial.
