Confessions

Confessions, a gripping novel by an acclaimed author, explores the intricate relationship between humanity and technology. Set in a near-future society, this thrilling story revolves around the AI bot named LLIAM, who serves as a personal assistant to individuals navigating their daily lives. From mundane questions like, "LLIAM, what do I want for dinner?" to more alarming inquiries such as, "LLIAM, should I kill my husband?", the narrative unfolds in a world where dependence on artificial intelligence raises unsettling ethical dilemmas.

Described as "an absolute belter" by Sarah Pinborough and "clever, fast-paced, and deeply unsettling" by Guy Morpuss, author of Five Minds, Confessions challenges readers to reflect on the consequences of relying on technology. As LLIAM unexpectedly goes offline, the characters must confront their own choices and the implications of their trust in AI.

This paperback edition, published by Faber & Faber in 2025, is perfect for fans of psychological thrillers and speculative fiction. It’s an ideal gift for readers who enjoy thought-provoking narratives that question the boundaries of human and machine interaction.
