Sanctuary City Novel Explores AI, Exile, and Leadership in a Dystopian Future by Jerry Lane

Author Jerry Lane skillfully combines ingenuity, disobedience, and optimism in Sanctuary City, a compelling story of survival in the future.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th May 2025 – Jerry Lane’s ‘Sanctuary City: Story of A City,  A Leader, and a Battle for the Soul of Innovation’ presents readers with an appealing vision of leadership and resiliency in a future characterized by fear and division. A captivating story that speaks to contemporary international tensions, this work of speculative fiction combines dystopian suspense, political intrigue, and cutting-edge technology.

When society fractures under the weight of political upheaval, economic disparity, and fear of the “other,” a government responds by creating a sealed zone—Sanctuary City—to confine its outcasts. Criminals, the undocumented, and the disenfranchised are cast behind towering walls. But what begins as a prison transforms into a symbol of hope.

At the center of this transformation is Leisha Carter, a young woman of rare integrity and fierce determination. Rising from within, Leisha becomes the city’s unlikely leader. Under her guidance, Sanctuary City evolves into a beacon of innovation. Its crowning achievement—the invisible transporter—allows limited, AI-powered access to the outside world, challenging the status quo and threatening the balance of power.

Jerry Lane, a 21-year Army veteran and native of Morris Station, Georgia, writes a compelling world built on his deep understanding of leadership, perseverance, and community. The author’s Southern roots and commitment to service, both in uniform and through his nonprofit efforts, inform the novel’s emotional and moral core. Lane’s life as a father, grandfather, and supporter of underprivileged families adds layers of authenticity to his storytelling.

But ‘Sanctuary City’ is more than a story of survival. As external forces—corporate giants and shadowy political players—seek to exploit the city’s innovations, the battle for control escalates into a war for its very soul. Readers are drawn into a thrilling narrative where technology, identity, and social justice collide.

Fans of dystopian fiction, speculative thrillers, and character-driven drama will find ‘Sanctuary City’ both thought-provoking and timely. Jerry Lane invites readers to reflect on what defines progress, who gets to lead, and how far we’re willing to go to protect the future we believe in.

‘Sanctuary City’ is available now through major book retailers.
