Trig was built to obey. A memory-wiped enforcer for the elite, he collects debts in a poisoned city where sunlight is a luxury and children are currency. But when a mission leads him to a woman who claims to be his mother and reveals the Towers' darkest secret, Trig must choose between the system that shaped him and the truth that could shatter it.
From the smog-choked slums to the glass spires of power, Above the Smog is a relentless, emotionally charged dystopian thriller about identity, resistance, and the cost of remembering. With razor-sharp chapters and no filler, this is a story for readers who crave momentum, heart, and a hero who wasn't supposed to exist.
