Jackie Lennox is a white-hat hacker navigating a treacherous web of espionage, where trust is fleeting and danger lurks in every shadow. Sharon Walker-Nilssen, a steadfast President, struggles to hold her nation—and her family—together in the wake of political and personal upheaval. Jake Murphy, a young man burdened by a dangerous secret, must navigate a world where survival often comes at a cost. Together, their choices will shape the future of their fractured society.
A Fragile Peace Under Threat

Their intertwined destinies lead them to confront powerful forces, testing their courage and resolve at every turn.
