In a world that never stops watching, silences becomes revolution.

Jon Cronshaw's chilling new collection Muted exposes the terrifying reality of a Britain where algorithms determine your worth, corporations own your memories, and resistance is just another datapoint to be analysed.

When a mother surrenders her child to an AI parenting system, when a grieving brother fights for his right to forget, when a society measures human value in battery percentage—we witness the quiet horror of technological control hiding behind corporate smiles.

Follow ordinary people trapped in extraordinary systems as they discover the true cost of convenience.

From council estates in Wolverhampton to sleek London flats, Muted maps a near-future that's disturbingly familiar—where every surrender feels rational until the day you realise you've traded your humanity for an optimized simulation of living.

Muted isn't just speculative fiction. It's a warning, a mirror, and ultimately a question: What parts of your humanity are non-negotiable?
