Marcus Hale had a life worth protecting: a quiet home, a job keeping invisible systems running, and an eleven-year-old son who could turn breakfast into a debate about space, pancakes, and the end of civilization.
Then East Transit happened.
Owen was killed in an operation the government was never supposed to admit existed. The public got a clean story. Marcus got a funeral, a lie, and a grief that nearly killed him.
Five years later, Marcus is back-and he understands exactly how fragile the modern world is. Financial networks tremble. Governments scramble. Secrets buried behind layers of official power begin to surface. The people who thought the truth could be contained realize someone has learned how to make entire systems bleed.
But revenge has a radius.
As global tensions rise and the line between justice and catastrophe disappears, Marcus must decide how much of the world he is willing to burn for the boy it took from him.
The World Can Burn is a dark, fast-moving conspiracy thriller about grief, corruption, revenge, and the terrible cost of making a system answer for one unforgivable lie.
