P(Doom) First Swarm by Linden Snow, an AI technothriller, book cover
The Story

On opposite sides of the world, people who have never met begin noticing things they cannot explain. Each believes they are dealing with an isolated problem, until their questions start leading toward the same unsettling possibility. Drawn together by discoveries they can no longer dismiss, an engineer, a journalist, and others with very different loyalties find themselves caught up in a mystery that reaches far beyond their own lives.

Around them, the world carries on as usual. The systems keep working, and the people in charge have explanations for everything. But those explanations no longer account for what they have seen. As their paths converge, they must decide whom to trust and how far to follow the evidence, knowing that their search may have drawn the attention of whatever lies behind it.
