Description
Derrick Ridservsky is a man haunted by failure. At 26, he's already lost more than most could bear - the weight of his past pressing down on him like a ghost he can't outrun. He tried to save them all, to stop the inevitable collapse, but the world was already falling apart beneath his feet. Now, with the ashes of his mistakes scattered across a dying world, Derrick sets out to make things right - not for redemption, but because it's the only thing left to do. Set in a world not so different from ours - fractured, corrupt, and teetering on the edge of oblivion - Derrick walks a thin line between hope and despair. As he faces ruthless enemies, dangerous allies, and the haunting echoes of his past, he begins to uncover a truth buried beneath the ruins - one that could either save what's left... or destroy it completely. In a world where hope is a fading ember, Derrick must decide how far he's willing to go - and how much of himself he's willing to lose - to give humanity one last chance.
