The Absent Mind Protocolby E.M. Thomben

What if the last thing you remember... wasn't real?In the sand-choked remains of a failed terraforming colony, a lone figure awakens-helmet cracked, oxygen fading, memory fractured. She doesn't know her name. Only the countdown. Only the loop. Only the voice in her ear that whispers: "You were never supposed to wake up."Subject 03 is a failed clone-or maybe the original. Her mission was abandoned. Her mind, rewritten. And each time she reaches the end of the cycle, it all begins again. But with every reboot, the memories bleed through-the cries in the cave, the mirrors that shouldn't reflect, the voices that speak in past tense.Worse still, she's not alone. Something stalks the ruins. Something that remembers her even when she forgets herself.As the layers of reality unravel, she begins to question everything. Is she part of a protocol gone rogue? A failed AI recovery experiment? Or a prisoner trapped in someone else's grief?And when she finally remembers who she was...it might be too late to stop who she's become.A haunting sci-fi psychological horror that blends the disorientation of SOMA with the existential dread of Annihilation.For fans of recursive thrillers, memory-bending mysteries, and survival stories that never let you exhale.
