He built a digital heaven. Now, he must stop it from becoming hell on Earth.
Dr. Ronald Wyane was the genius behind the Rebirth Project-a quantum leap that promised to end human suffering by uploading consciousness to a perfect digital world. But a catastrophic failure buried his work in blood and scandal, leaving him a disgraced and broken man.
Years later, Wyane is a low-rent private investigator in the rain-slicked, neon-soaked city of Nova Cascadia, drowning his past in cheap whiskey. His self-imposed exile shatters when a former colleague vanishes, leaving behind a single, impossible artifact: a pulsating crystal key connected to his long-dead invention.
The Veil is not gone. It has been found.
Now, Wyane is the target of a shadowy corporation and its army of otherworldly assassins. Hunted through the city's decaying underbelly and tormented by the screaming echoes of minds trapped in his creation, he is thrust into a deadly race to reclaim his masterpiece. To stop a madman from unleashing a power that can rewrite reality itself, Wyane must confront the devastating truth buried in his own bloodline.
He thought he was building a utopia. He was actually awakening a god.
And he is the only one who can silence it.
