Luca is a young and successful advertising creative who has everything that someone is supposed to want; the girl, the status, and a beautiful flat in London. This would be great if his mind didn't hate him for having become a slut of capitalism. Panic attacks and suicidal thoughts lead him to leave his shallow life behind and he embarks on a journey to find meaning. Drugs, tears, & love from the sweaty London tube to the decadent nights of Berlin.

New York, 2054. Artificial intelligence has left the majority of mankind unemployed and depending on universal basic income, but Anna has landed a sales job at JSC & Family, the world’s leading tech company. Moving into their corporate fortress, known as "the crystal castle", where employees work and live, she will have to survive in a hyper-competitive environment under the constant surveillance of the machines.

The crystal castle is a psychological thriller that explores the existential consequences of the AI revolution, the price of power and the evolution of human relations in a digital world. Some would say it's science fiction, but I see it as an accurate description of what will happen in thirty years. Currently looking for a literary agent for representation and publishing.
