The city is split. The face is identical. The choice is fatal.
The Apex is a fortress of glass and clean air, ruled by the Corvus conglomerate. The Sump is a radioactive slum drowning in industrial runoff and rage. Between them stands a wall that only the dead are supposed to cross.
Cade Sterling is a Sump-born fixer, a wasted genius, and a high-functioning alcoholic who knows exactly how cheap a human life is. Dante Corvus is the heir to the city's throne, a man trying to buy redemption with a family fortune built on blood.
They share a face. They share a woman. And when the revolution finally boils over, they share a sentence.
After Dante is captured by the resistance and condemned to the guillotine for the crimes of his ancestors, Cade sees the only hand he has left to play. It isn't about heroism. It isn't about politics. It's about a promise made on a balcony to the woman who loves them both.
In a world where identity is just another form of currency, Cade Sterling is about to make the ultimate transaction.
