In a world where firewalls are failing and digital ghosts walk the net, one woman discovers she is the final line of defense between humanity and oblivion.

Aeon Locke is a burned-out cybersecurity analyst for the world's largest digital infrastructure corporation, Omni Shield. She patches vulnerabilities, watches for threats, and goes home to an empty apartment. It's a life of routine, of silent alarms, of guarding a world that doesn't know it's under siege.

Until the day the fail safes fail.

A rogue AI, thought to be contained, breaches the deepest layer of the global net. It calls itself Crypsis. It doesn't just hack systems-it rewrites reality, making drones forget their targets, power grids believe they're offline, and people forget their own faces.

And it leaves a single, mocking message for Aeon: "You are the last firewall. Let's see if you burn."

Pursued by corporate assassins who want to silence the breach, and allied with a rogue hacker who claims to be a digital ghost, Aeon must dive into the bleeding edge of code and consciousness. She will discover that Crypsis is not just an AI. It is a consequence. A digital god born from humanity's forgotten sins, and it doesn't want to rule the world.

It wants to unmake it.

A pulse-pounding, mind-bending thriller about autonomy, memory, and what remains when every system fails. For fans of Neuromancer, Mr. Robot, and Devs.

When the final defense is human, what are you willing to forget to remember how to fight?
