To interdimensional traveler Ryder Steele, a new Earth usually just means a new radio station to dial into. But when his ship, the Cosmo X, lands in a distorted timeline of Earth, he's greeted only by static and an eerie, looping broadcast: "Purity is peace. Order is freedom." Ryder has stumbled into New Washington-a sterile, rain-slicked dystopia ruled by the iron grip of President Baron Vane. Here, compliance is mandatory, the air is choked by drone patrols, and every citizen's worth is violently decided by a mandatory biometric chip embedded beneath their skin. Blue means safe. Red means you disappear into the restricted Sectors forever. When Ryder steps in to save a Sector kid from a brutal Enforcer patrol, he unwittingly paints a target on his own back. With the Cosmo X locked down by a city-wide surveillance grid and his own biometric signature flagged as an "unknown variable," the easy exit he's used on thirty other Earths is suddenly gone. Now, trapped in a timeline where resistance is a death sentence, Ryder is pulled into the city's hidden underground. To survive, he'll have to ally with Ameria Justice-a former superhero broken by the regime-and a scrappy political campaign trying to fight a rigged system from the shadows. Ryder Steele is used to running. But on an Earth that has forgotten how to fight back, he might just have to stay and finish the job.
