The Mother Code by Carole Stivers

In a future where humanity faces extinction due to a biological weapon, scientists create genetically engineered children to ensure survival. These children are nurtured by robotic "mothers," designed to protect and raise them in a desolate world. As the children grow, they begin to question their existence and the intentions behind their creation. The narrative follows Kai, one of these children, as he embarks on a journey to understand his identity and the true purpose of the "mother" that raised him, ultimately exploring themes of humanity, technology, and the essence of parental love.
