## Official Synopsis
In the City of Good, peace is not a choice; it is an algorithm.
After two years of rigorous training, inhabitants live under the control of a chip that monitors every emotion. Here, aggression is detected before it manifests, and any deviation from tranquility leads to the inevitable Interrogation. The system is perfect. Evil has been eradicated.
Until now.
In a scenario of absolute order, deaths emerge that logic cannot explain, and crimes that the chip does not detect. Has someone learned to deceive technology? Someone has breached control.
In this psychological thriller, Anthony Casten questions: can virtue be imposed? And what remains of our essence when "Good" becomes constant surveillance?
In the perfect city, the unthinkable has happened.
