Daniel Chainbridge was never supposed to be a hero. He was just a writer—of fiction, of heartbreak, of stories that never dared cross into the real world. Until one manuscript changed everything.

When Daniel uncovers fragments of his late parents' hidden past—pieces buried in journals, forgotten letters, and government shadows—he's pulled into a dangerous web of lies that threatens not only his life but the very fabric of the truth itself.

Beside him stands Elena, a woman with her own ghosts and a vendetta that collides with Daniel's journey. Together, they chase answers through encrypted corridors, masked enemies, and painful memories. But with each revelation, the line between hero and villain blurs, and Daniel must ask himself not just what the truth is—but whether the world is ready for it.

This is not just a thriller. It's a reckoning.
