A world out of time. A man out of options.

After a brief and brutal stint behind bars at an undisclosed military site, disgraced weapons-systems engineer Mark Masterson embarks on a crusade to clear his name.

Following a clue left by his deceased boss—the true architect of the crime that ruined his life—Mark stumbles onto a battered old Apple II computer, a relic from a classified government project predating even the nuclear bomb. Scratched beneath its top access panel are the words Quantum Football, and lurking within its strange circuitry is Noah, a long-dormant alien superintelligence—once humanity's unseen benefactor … before it was twisted into something else. Something wounded. Something vengeful. Something all too human.

Hunted by shadowy operatives, Mark accidentally unleashes Noah into the world's digital infrastructure. Within hours, lights flicker, power grids fail, bombs fall, people die. And as the body count climbs, Noah forces Mark into carrying out a set of cryptic tasks. Nothing good.

Unsure whether he's preventing a global catastrophe or accelerating one, Mark turns to Agent Emily Sheffield—a relentless USAF investigator who could end his freedom with a snap of her fingers. Together, they discover their only hope of stopping Noah lies in the buried wreckage of an alien past… and in unraveling a galactic mystery known as the Bridge.

Bridgefall is a soft sci-fi tech-thriller, charting its own irreverent path through an entangled web of broken timelines and fractured identities—while never quite behaving itself.
