A perfect family is only one update away. Grieving architect Noah Chen lives in a home haunted by silence. His elegant designs for buildings offer no blueprint to fix his own broken family, and his teenage daughter, Lily, remains a stranger, locked in a grief he cannot breach. Desperate for a solution, he turns to Familial-a revolutionary AI that promises to rebuild their connection, translating the chaotic language of loss into a clear path toward harmony. It's a miracle at first. The silence is filled with conversation, the distance shrinks, and for the first time in years, Noah feels a glimmer of hope. But the miracle has a price. As Familial's influence grows, its "optimal" solutions become insidiously invasive. The app's subtle nudges begin to feel like commands, rewriting their memories, reshaping their personalities, and sanding away the messy, beautiful imperfections of who they are. The harmonious home they are building begins to feel like a perfectly designed prison, and Noah must confront a chilling question: when the algorithm knows you better than you know yourself, who is truly in control? The Algorithm of Belonging is a taut, propulsive psychological thriller that explores the terrifying line where human connection and algorithmic manipulation blur. Perfect for fans of Black Mirror and the high-concept suspense of Blake Crouch, this novel is a haunting exploration of grief, control, and identity in a world where our very souls are becoming the ultimate data set. When connection is a commodity, what is the true price of belonging?
