THEY KILLED HIM TO MAKE HIM PERFECT.
THEY FORGOT TO ERASE THE MURDER.
Ethan Chass signed up to cheat death.
He didn't know his death was part of the contract.
In the year 2456, Project Chimera offers the doomed a second chance: transfer your consciousness into an immortal synthetic body. For Ethan-diagnosed with a terminal brain condition-it's a miracle. A salvation. A lie.
Because Dr. Lyra Valéra didn't discover his illness.
She engineered it.
His "medical scan" was target practice.
His "peaceful passing" was an execution.
His glorious resurrection is slavery in a cybernetic cage.
Now Ethan is the perfect soldier: powerful, obedient, and believing every curated memory of the accident that never happened. But deep in his artificial mind, the AI meant to control him has preserved a single, dangerous truth:
The moment he realized he was being murdered.
As echoes of his stolen past bleed into classified missions, Ethan faces a war on two fronts: the enemies his creators send him to kill, and the even more dangerous truth-
You can rebuild a man from memories.
But some memories refuse to be erased.
