The Quiet Index
In a city where every public record, contract and memory archive is controlled by a civic indexing system, Mara Vale works restoring damaged data for the state that quietly edits the past. When she finds evidence that her own life has been revised, she starts tracing the missing pieces through bookshops, dead servers and people who have learned to live with official lies. The deeper she goes, the more she has to decide whether truth is worth the cost of becoming unarchivable.
