Fires And Firewalls

The logic was clean. The firewall was impenetrable. Then the fire caught.

Browne has a system for surviving the Faculty of Law: stay silent, hide behind oversized dark cotton, and never let anyone trace the code back to his family's name. He calculates life in clean algorithms. No variables. No complications.

When a midnight data breach uncovers a secret the university has spent millions to bury, the architecture of Browne's quiet life completely collapses.
