Dependence Day

The Mission That Ignites the Spark

When investigative journalist Thomas Calder accepts a covert assignment to expose a clandestine network of corporate espionage, he believes he’s prepared for any danger that might come his way. But as he uncovers evidence of a shadowy syndicate manipulating world markets, he realizes the price of truth may be higher than he ever imagined. From neon-lit trading floors in London to secret boardroom meetings in Frankfurt, Thomas follows a trail of forged documents and half-whispered threats that pull him deeper into a web of deceit—and closer to a conspiracy with global consequences.

Alliances in the Midst of Deception

Teaming up with Elena Morozova, a brilliant Russian cybersecurity expert haunted by her own past, Thomas must navigate a labyrinth of coded communications, double agents, and sudden betrayals. Each revelation brings new dangers: a trusted source who disappears overnight, a data leak that costs lives, and a mole within his own newsroom feeding false leads. With time running out before the syndicate’s next catastrophic strike, the two find themselves relying on instincts sharper than any encryption and a fragile bond that might be the only thing standing between them and total collapse.

Rhythms of Redemption on the Edge

As Thomas and Elena race to expose the architects of financial ruin, they face impossible choices: sacrifice their personal safety or risk the futures of millions. In a heart-pounding climax beneath the storm-lashed skyline of a European capital, they must decide whether to trust a final, unlikely ally—and whether redemption can be found in the very act of revealing the deepest lies. Dependence Day is a gripping thriller of loyalty, courage, and the relentless pursuit of justice in a world where every truth has its price.
