In the rain-slicked, neon-drenched canyons of Neo-Veridia, a city where towering corporate spires cast long shadows over forgotten secrets, Elias Thorne, a disillusioned archivist, stumbles upon a truth more dangerous than any data he's ever cataloged. His meticulous world shatters when he uncovers a high-stakes espionage plot, a conspiracy that reaches into the very heart of his own family. The architect of this shadowy scheme is closer than he ever imagined, forcing Elias to navigate a treacherous labyrinth of deceit where trust is a currency traded in whispers and betrayal is the only certainty. As Elias delves deeper, he finds himself entangled with Anya Petrova, a mysterious informant whose motives are as elusive as the city's hidden alleyways, and pursued by Commander Eva Rostova, a relentless corporate security chief with her own agenda.
