When a quiet university project is secretly used to build a high-security detention facility, five strangers are pulled into a fight much bigger than themselves.
Sofie, an architecture student who just wanted to design safer spaces.
Rosa, a photographer who accidentally captured proof of a crime.
Alex, a systems investigator who knows how power hides in plain sight.
Leo, the insider who helped build the machine-and wants out.
Adriaan, the whistleblower who was supposed to be dead.
Together, they expose Helix: a covert network that detains and manipulates people in the name of "stability." But bringing it into the light only reveals something bigger - a global system designed to predict crises... and control people before they can choose for themselves.
Their enemy isn't just a man.
It's an idea: that safety matters more than consent.
As disasters strike and governments panic, the world begins to lean toward the very system they're trying to stop. Now they face their hardest question yet:
How do you fight control... when it starts to look like care?
A slow-burn, high-stakes story about surveillance, ethics, power, and the people who decide the future shouldn't be built in the dark.
