Milo is a Life Guide, an engineer assigned to monitor the life of a single member of Frankfurt’s “Club i.” For the past decade, 33 of the world’s billionaires have enjoyed unremitting success in business, health, relationships—every aspect of their existence. These individuals’ lives are guided behind the scenes to ensure the best possible outcome to every situation. The automations are spot-on, but in the rare instance the quantum cluster can’t make a decision, Milo must step in and select the path he judges most optimal. He’s paid extremely well, doesn't mind the stress, or complain when he receives an alert in the middle of the night. In fact, he’d probably do this work for free. Observing the day-to-day life of a wealthy Russian mob boss? It’s like the greatest television show ever made!
Unfortunately, Milo's client, Feliks, has a spoiled, out-of-control son, Roland. When Milo is awakened by a 2am alert on a Sunday morning, it’s Roland's path options that are rapidly shrinking. With seconds to decide, Milo must choose between the best possible outcome for his client's business, or his family.
Roland dies. Now the technology behind Club i’s services is under scrutiny, its leadership threatened, its entire membership is in peril … and Feliks wants to know who was in control of his son’s path.
