Synopsis
Framed, hunted, and stripped of his old life, Simon is forced on the run alongside two impossible targets: Leo, a bio-engineered boy acting as a living data bridge, and Zeph, a hunted AI kernel evolving at a terrifying speed. Pursued by the Syndicate—a cabal of global elites using bleeding-edge technology to subjugate the planet—Simon realizes he isn't just a protector. He carries the ultimate weapon. Locked within his own biometrics is the kill-switch to a digital empire. To survive, Simon must navigate a deadly maze of corporate black-ops and untethered artificial intelligence, or watch humanity be quietly enslaved by an unseen hand.
