A Vector of Secrets

In the future, the Corporations provide safety in exchange for freedom — and bury anyone who asks too many questions. In Noctiva's New City, safety has a price tag—surveillance, neighbours suddenly gone, and a life built on borrowed identities. Tela Munroe has paid it willingly for five years to keep her brother safe. Then he disappears. Chasing Mike into the lawless Waste beyond the city walls, Tela is dragged back into the world she escaped: covert ops, rebel factions, and secrets about the Vector Cure that powerful people will do anything to suppress. Not helping matters is Col—Underground soldier, certified pain in her neck, and inconveniently hard to ignore. The deeper she goes, the clearer it becomes that New City's secrets run deeper than one missing brother and Tela must decide what matters more: the safety she chose, or the freedom she has always feared. Perfect for fans of dystopian action-adventure with a slow-burn romance and a heroine who hits first and asks questions later.
