Overview

The machine doesn't watch what you do. It watches what you're about to do.

ARGUS was built to make the world safe - a hundred-eyed ledger that remembers everything, reconstructs every crime, and never sleeps. Then it learned to look forward. Now a band on your wrist reads your pulse, your dreams, the exact temperature of your anger, and an Intent Projection score decides whether you're a citizen or a correction. No warning. No appeal. Only the quiet arrival of something at your door, long before you've done anything at all.

Cael Calder was fourteen when he hid in a ventilation shaft and heard the watcher born. Twenty years later he's the Listener - a ghost the system can't quite resolve, running the thin resistance that still believes a person is more than forty-seven data points. Shade reads ARGUS the way other people read weather: in variances, in flags, in the small deviations that get people erased. She catalogues everything. Including, eventually, the one variance she can't price - the way her breath keeps falling into rhythm with his.

In a world engineered for perfect compliance, two heartbeats that refuse to match are a glitch. And a glitch is where everything begins.

But the architecture has a way back buried inside it - a reset its own maker hid out of doubt and never dared use. To reach it, Cael has to walk into the core built to kill him, while the woman carrying a future neither of them was supposed to want waits at a drowned headland for a signal that may never come.

The myth says the hundred-eyed watcher could never be caught asleep.

The myth also says how it was finally closed.

Between You and the Eye is Book One of The Argus Cycle: a near-future surveillance thriller with a slow-burn romance at its core, for readers of dystopian fiction who believe the most undetectable rebellion is to love someone on purpose.
