In the shadow of glass towers, single mother Lena Sawyer uncovers a conspiracy woven into the hiring algorithms of NexusCorp—a scheme that has condemned thousands of minority applicants to silence. When she becomes the sole witness, the entire machinery of the city of Portomare, from corrupt politicians to a bought-off judiciary, brands her a criminal. This is a world where the law is a cold contract written in ink, and conscience is a gamble paid in blood.
