When everyone IRL lies, the only person you can trust is an NPC.
Thanks to Bone Diggers like Owen exposing the lives behind the code, dirty little secrets can't just be hidden behind player avatars anymore. When his two worlds blur, he must decide which is more important: his freedom, or the game. The right choices will be rewarded with fame, fortune, and adventure. Wrong calls could cost him both lives. Still, playing the game is what Owen does, and he's good at it...as long as his real-life adventures don't prove more perilous than his digital swordfights. In the real world, there is no walkthrough.

As they race to uncover the truth about who they are and why they were chosen, Clara begins to unlock memories that don't belong to her-and a voice in the system calling her "Progenitor." Because Haven isn't just a sanctuary. It's a test. A weapon. A cage. And time is running out. Welcome to the future. Where survival isn't enough... you must remember who to trust.Complete
