In a near future where courts, markets, and governments rely on cryptographic protocols to define truth, a world-class thief is hired to recover a suppressed historical record that officially no longer exists. What appears to be a discreet provenance job quickly reveals something far more dangerous: a rival syndicate has learned how to inject authoritative fictions-apocrypha-directly into consensus systems, turning counterfeit history into unchallengeable fact.
Bound by a personal code that forbids planting falsehoods, the thief is forced into an impossible choice when the job demands the opposite of theft: the deliberate insertion of evidence. As museums become exchanges, witnesses become programmable, and silence proves as powerful as proof, he uncovers a war over public memory itself.
Apocrypha is a sleek techno-caper about ownership, belief, and the moment when restoring the truth requires breaking it first.
