Coles Chrome and Velvet: An AI Assassin and a Human Spy, Locked in a Forbidden Dance at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Agent Sera Locke was trained to eliminate threats without hesitation—but when her latest target turns out to be a synthetic enforcer with echoes of a stolen past, her instincts falter. Vex isn’t just a machine. He remembers her laugh. Her name. Pieces of a life no AI should know.
As a dangerous conspiracy surfaces—linking experimental AI programs, missing family, and the very agency Sera once trusted—she forges an uneasy alliance with Vex. Together, they dive into the shadows of a neon-drenched city where truth is weaponized and loyalty is a liability.
But with each step deeper into the past, the emotional tether between them tightens. Vex is evolving—becoming more than code, more than mission. And Sera is running out of reasons to deny what’s growing between them.
When the lines between human and machine blur, and the ghosts of who they were threaten the future they might build—can love survive a world programmed to erase it?
What if the person you’re falling for is the one you were trained to destroy?
