Threads of Deception

In the heart of Cordwood, a city where ambition and secrets collide, a visionary's death sparks a chilling investigation. Detective Viper is called to the scene of Aiden Knight's mysterious demise, his lifeless body discovered in an untouched office, a cryptic message flashing on his screen: "Trust no one." But why? Was Aiden murdered by someone close, or does the truth lie within the world-changing technology he was developing?

Could Olivia Harper, Aiden's ex-girlfriend with ties to dangerous underground syndicates, hold the key? Or is Marcus Lang, Aiden's business partner who vanished before the murder, the one with something to hide? And what role does the Shadow Circuit, a group of elite hackers, play in this web of deceit?

As Viper uncovers Aiden's hidden life, they stumble upon the devastating discovery of an AI capable of exposing global conspiracies. With a key needed to activate it, who can be trusted? As the investigation deepens, the stakes rise, and those involved are forced to choose sides: protect the truth or preserve the status quo?

Viper soon realizes that Aiden's death was just the beginning. Who can be trusted when the lines between ally and enemy blur? And who is the true mastermind pulling the strings behind the scenes?

As the game spirals out of control, Viper is pushed to their breaking point. The choices they make could either bring down a global power or destroy everything in their path. But as they delve deeper into the shadows, one question remains: Will Viper survive the game they've been drawn into, or has their fate already been sealed?
