Thread and Blade: A Fracture Line Saga (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798257484124)

Volume I of Threads of Ash & Wire - A Fracture Line Saga

In the City of Shadows, governance is corporate, automated, and absolute. Memory is treated as civic infrastructure, audited and erased in the name of stability. Forgetting is policy.

Kira Vale is a freelance ledger fixer, trained to correct small faults in the system and leave no trace behind. When she wakes with a memory fragment that does not belong to her, a child's laughter, the clink of a spoon, the taste of metal, she recognizes it as a liability. In a city where deviation invites scrutiny, an unclaimed memory is exposure.

Tracing the fragment draws her into the Market of Shards, where memories are traded beyond Meridian Authority control, and where some records do not stay erased.

This is not a story of open rebellion. Resistance survives here through procedure, ritual, and endurance. In a system built to overwrite reality, truth persists only in what people are willing to carry quietly, and at risk.
