Summary

No one has benefited more from AI and Machine learning than the con artist. This 10-part police drama begins in Los Angeles with an investigation into a group of con men using machine learning to improve their scams and ends in Tibet with a long con involving reincarnation and an evolved artificial intelligence. With each chapter, the stakes rise higher as cybercrimes detective Sydney Birch peels back layer after layer of this complex scheme. A lot of the story and its details draw directly from current events and popular online conspiracy theories.

When approaching this audio, you'll have to think of it more like a narrative episodic podcast than a book. It's a slowburn at times with twists and turns, and if you can remain focused and figure out the storyline, it's quite rewarding. The performance is absolutely amazing and the story is enjoyable. The ending could be disappointing if you're not fully engaged, but if you paid attention along the way and can figure out the implications of the ending, then it fits the story nicely.
The strong suit of the story is the characterization. Walker does a splendid job of writing engaging and realistic characters and Rhea Seehorn and the cast really brings them to life.
Overall a recommended listen! I'm hoping to hear more audios written by Walker and narrated by Rhea Seehorn and the rest of the cast.

Enjoyable story, amazing performance
