The Salzburg Executioner is a gripping psychological thriller that delves deep into the dark intersections of technology, ethics, and human isolation.

As James uncovers the sinister side of algorithmic manipulation within the company he co-founded, he spirals into psychosis, questioning the very essence of his inventions and their impact on society.
Set against the haunting backdrop of Salzburg, Austria, James's journey takes him to the historical home of Franz Joseph Wohlmuth, a renowned executioner whose meticulous records helped end public executions and torture. Paralleling his own descent, James becomes obsessed with exposing the unethical use of AI and social media algorithms that drive societal isolation and mental health crises.
