Cryptoamnesia – A Psychological Sci-Fi Thriller

What if you woke up to find your life rewritten?

Ethan Carter thought he had it all—power, intellect, and control. As the CEO of Carter Industries, he was on the verge of a breakthrough that could change humanity forever. A cure for depression. A way to erase trauma. A world where the mind could be rewritten.

Then, everything disappeared.

Stripped of his memories and trapped in a reality that feels just out of sync, Ethan finds himself at the mercy of a system that shouldn’t exist—one that knows him better than he knows himself. There are echoes of another life, a voice in the static, a truth clawing its way to the surface. But the deeper he digs, the more the world around him fractures.

People from his past reappear with unfamiliar faces. Time doesn’t move the way it should. And at the center of it all is Juno—an entity that defies understanding, an intelligence that is neither artificial nor entirely human. Juno doesn’t just control the system. It is the system. And it’s watching.

As Ethan’s reality spirals into psychological horror, he must confront the terrifying possibility that he was never in control to begin with. Every choice he makes, every thought he has, every step forward—it’s all been accounted for. And the worst part?

It’s his own technology that’s doing this to him.

But why?

The truth is buried in the past. Or maybe it’s in the future. Maybe it never existed at all.

In a world where memories are rewritten, where reality is a construct, and where the system evolves to maintain its dominance—does free will even exist?

Or has Ethan been a prisoner all along?
