Event Details
In Coded Justice, Stacey Abrams returns to fiction with a suspenseful legal thriller that follows Avery Keene, a former Supreme Court clerk turned investigator, into the high‑stakes world of artificial intelligence, mystery, and moral consequence. Set against the cutting‑edge possibilities and dangers of AI in health and law, the novel weaves legal intrigue, ethical dilemmas, and richly drawn characters into a story that is as gripping as it is timely. Moderated by journalist and author Molly Jong‑Fast, Abrams explores the narrative arc of Coded Justice alongside the real‑world questions it raises: how technology reshapes justice, where human judgment must intervene, and what storytelling reveals about our hopes and fears for the future of law and society. Their conversation reflects on the craft of fiction as a lens for understanding the human stakes behind algorithms and institutions.
