Samenvatting:

Investigative journalist Maren Doyle has built her career exposing encrypted secrets—black sites, digital warfare, anonymous power. But nothing prepares her for what’s buried in the final message of a murdered blockchain researcher: a string of wallet addresses... and her own.
When Maren discovers that a NATO-era assassination protocol has evolved into a killchain powered by cryptographic identities, she races across Europe to decrypt its origins. But the deeper she digs, the more the line blurs between observer and perpetrator.
Someone is impersonating her. Someone has replicated her signature on a digital chain of death. And the system they’re protecting doesn’t just silence dissidents—it remembers them.
As she chases fragments of her past—some forgotten, others stolen—Maren is forced to confront a horrifying possibility: that she may not be the person she thinks she is.
Shadowed by a silent ledger that calculates lives with mathematical indifference, Maren must decide how much of her identity she’s willing to sacrifice to shut it all down.
But what happens when the machine meant to preserve truth begins rewriting it?
