I remember a science fiction ebook I read last year. It had a protagonist who was the last survivor of her colony planet; some plague had made everyone go crazy & kill each other. She signed on with a group studying another culture that seemed to be hit by the same plague, in which a couple of the people were one mind shared in two bodies (they'd originally been two people, who merged somehow). The whole expedition had help/interference from an AI-ish culture/entity. (Maybe nanites. Not sure if those qualify as AI.)

I've forgotten all the names. Characters, author, title, everything. I remember flashes of the book. I vaguely remember the cover, maybe. (Woman in tight-fitting leather armor-ish outfit looking out over a wilderness?) But because the title & author wasn't at the top of every page, and because I didn't see the bookcover every time I picked it up to read, I didn't have it reinforced enough to remember the details later.
That sounds like the Andrea Cort novels by Adam-Troy Castro. First book is Emissaries from the Dead.
