SHADOWLINE: FAULT LINE

When systems run everything… who controls the system?

The system isn’t failing.
It’s behaving exactly as it was designed.

Dr. Elena Vale understands architecture — not buildings, but the invisible frameworks that hold modern infrastructure together.

When she uncovers irregularities buried deep inside federal encryption systems, what begins as a technical anomaly quickly escalates into something far more dangerous.

Marcus Cole operates in the spaces between authority and action — where decisions are made before they’re ever documented. When Elena’s discovery places her at the center of a growing investigation, Marcus is pulled into a conflict that stretches far beyond a single breach.

Together, they uncover a network of controlled instability — a system designed not to collapse, but to create demand.

Demand for control.
For oversight.
For power.

As federal hearings turn into battlegrounds and infrastructure itself becomes a weapon, Elena and Marcus must expose a truth that powerful interests are already rewriting.

Because in a world built on systems…
the greatest threat isn’t failure.

It’s control.
