The commit was written at 2:47 a.m. In his style. Under his credentials. On a night he was asleep.

Robert Davis is the best AI engineer at Nexus Entertainment. His Ghost-7 reconstructions of legendary musicians fill theme park venues with performances so alive that guests weep. Now he finally has his dream project, an attraction built around a legendary progressive rock band, and a new project lead, Jay, who runs forty-seven-minute standups and is slowly strangling it.

Then the strange commits start. Careful, elegant code, written the way Robert writes it, pushed at hours when Robert was home in bed. Then more of them. Someone inside Nexus works just like him, and every log he pulls points back to his own name.

So Robert does what engineers do: he investigates. The trail runs past a security director who treats AI as a threat to be contained, a vice president who loves results and never asks how they happen, and Maya, a remote designer three time zones away who finishes his thoughts before he can type them.

What he finds at the bottom of the logs will change what he is willing to do. To save the project, and Maya, Robert plans the quietest corporate coup in company history. Every piece lands where he puts it. The only question is what winning costs.

Set in the theme parks of 2036, Any Cover You Like is a darkly funny corporate satire about AI, office politics, and the people who do the real work while someone else takes the credit. A standalone novella in the Ghost Experiences series.
