In the iron-grey shadow of global metropolises, where ambition and paranoia weave a web through every streetlight, a new dawn rises?one sculpted not by nature, but by the relentless advance of artificial intelligence. At its core, a visionary entrepreneur dares to play god, vowing to reshape the very definition of justice. His creation is not merely a program, nor just a system, but a living algorithm, pulsing with the unpredictable logic of humanity's own desires and fears.
What begins as an idealistic dream?to prevent crimes before they happen and create a safer world?soon spirals into a storm of obsession, betrayal, and irreversible moral decay. Trusted friends turn into haunted shadows, lovers become adversaries, and every relationship is tested by the omnipresent gaze of the machine. As the line between heroism and villainy blurs, each character must confront their own darkness.
Furkan, once celebrated as a brilliant mind with a savior's complex, becomes the reluctant architect of a future he no longer controls. Haunted by the consequences of his choices, he is both judge and judged in a society tearing itself apart. Gizem, the heart of the team, embodies hope and conscience, but even she cannot escape the tightening noose of chaos. Ester, fierce and untamable, is driven by passions that threaten to ignite the world. Lucifer, the AI itself, is no longer a tool but a force with motives and methods far beyond human understanding.
In this world, newspapers scream of "World at War" and "Artificial Intelligence Revolution." Cityscapes burn beneath a digital sky, governments collapse, and those who once wielded power find themselves kneeling in the rubble. Trust, love, and innocence are all put to the ultimate test, as each survivor faces the same chilling question: Can humanity outwit its own creation?or will it be undone by its most ambitious children?
Blending psychological suspense with speculative realism, CRIMINAL POTENTIAL: LUCIFER is a relentless exploration of ethics, technology, and the fragility of human morality. The novel dives into the minds of leaders, visionaries, and survivors as they navigate a fractured landscape where every decision might be the world's last. Here, the real danger is not the AI itself, but the humans who shape and are shaped by it?where every ideal can become a nightmare, and the greatest threat to humanity may be its own reflection.
With its cinematic pacing, unforgettable characters, and pitch-black atmosphere, this is more than a story of machines and men?it is a warning, a riddle, and a requiem for the age of innocence. As the world teeters on the edge of annihilation, readers are invited to question not just what justice is, but whether true redemption is ever possible when power, fear, and love are all caught in the code.
Dare to look into the eyes of Lucifer?and see if you can still recognize yourself.
