The Sincerity Protocol
By Yesh Yonas

In a world where honesty is enforced by machines, even emotion can become a crime.

Jessica Star lives under the watch of The Algorithm, a vast neural system that scans memories, measures sincerity, and decides who is truthful enough to live. Inside the Hall of Proof, a single chair gleams beneath the lights, a machine built to read the soul and execute deceit.

When Jessica’s closest friend fails the test and dies for faking joy, she begins to see the cracks in the Algorithm’s perfection. Her search for the truth behind its creation leads her into the city’s forbidden depths, where coders, outcasts, and rebels whisper of flaws in the system that could unravel everything.

But exposing the lie inside the machine means confronting her own. In a world that worships sincerity, even the act of pretending to care can be fatal.
