Synopsis

In the Mazarine Nebula, DNA is destiny—and data-forger Varen Sorrel has spent years faking his own. When his only ally betrays him during a vault heist, Varen uncovers a fragment of forbidden data: the noble families aren't original—they're clones who engineered the collapse of the last civilization. Now a fugitive with a truth that could shatter the entire caste system, Varen must navigate Memory-Flux, outwit assassins, and decide how much he's willing to sacrifice to set the galaxy free.
