A dead engineer. A stolen prototype. A conspiracy buried inside one of the most powerful tech empires in the country.
When a Raleway Tech employee dies during a Halloween party in Seattle, the scene looks like a reckless overdose. But FBI Agent Jane Cannon knows staged deaths when she sees them, and this one has all the wrong details: a ruined computer, missing files, and a classified AI project someone is desperate to keep hidden.
Jane’s investigation pulls her into the orbit of tech magnate Nelson Rupert, a family with political reach, and the shadow of August Kaminski, the killer she still hasn’t brought to justice. Every answer exposes another layer of betrayal, and every ally seems to be guarding a secret.
With a prototype that could change the future of warfare on the line, Jane must untangle the truth before the wrong people sell it to the highest bidder.
Because this time, the breach isn’t just in the system.
It’s in the bloodline.
