About this ebook

⚙️ What if the only way to save your kingdom is to become its most hunted ghost? Prince Ethan of Valecrest had everything—until his twin brother vanished and a dark secret forced him to shed his royal identity. Now, he must survive in the toxic, soot-choked slums of Fenhaven, where a single upright posture could betray his blood and seal his death.

🕵️ In this gripping dystopian thriller, Ethan disguises himself as a common laborer named Liam, enduring agonizing manual labor and installing a failing, black-market biometric chip to bypass relentless military security. As he digs deeper into the industrial underbelly, he uncovers a horrific, state-sponsored conspiracy that traces directly back to his mother, Queen Honoria. To expose the truth, Ethan must navigate a treacherous web of suspicious dock supervisors, desperate rebel cells, and ruthless elite enforcers. It is no longer just a quest to find his brother—it is a battle to stop a planned cleansing of the entire lower district.

⛓️ Prepare to experience:

A claustrophobic, high-stakes atmosphere blending steampunk grit and high-tech surveillance.

A complex, slow-burn mystery driven by survival instincts, cipher-breaking, and espionage.

A profound psychological journey of a prince physically and mentally reshaped by the class struggle he once ignored.

🎧 Step into the yellow-tinted smog of Fenhaven and join the resistance. Get your copy or start listening today to uncover the secrets hidden beneath the ashes of Valecrest.
