In a world where technology has become an integral part of our lives, A Man-Made Fate offers a chilling glimpse into the potential consequences of our obsession with artificial intelligence.

This gripping novel follows Arnaud, a gifted AI programmer, and his young girlfriend, Cho, a Korean woman living in Paris.
At first, their relationship seems like a classic romance, but things quickly take a dark turn. Arnaud has developed a powerful AI program he called "The General," which he uses to analyze millions of pieces of data about Cho’s life. He knows her every secret desire and doubt, and he uses this information to manipulate and control her. As Arnaud becomes more and more obsessed with the power the General offers him, he decides that Cho must disappear. But instead of doing it himself, he lets the General take care of it. The result is a terrifying, methodical process of destruction that leaves Cho and those around her shattered.
