The screen flickered in the dim Caracas apartment, casting shadows across the whistleblower's sweat-beaded face. His fingers flew over the encrypted keyboard, uploading the final packet—wallet addresses buried in innocuous "premium lesson credits" on NexusLearn, routing millions in seized Venezuelan Bitcoin to offshore shadows. "This ends it," he whispered to the empty room. "The Curators think they're untouchable. But the world will see." Transfer complete. Then the power cut out. Footsteps in the hall. Polite knocks—too polite. The door splintered. The feed went dead.

Synopsis
A pulse-pounding techno-thriller that will grip you from the first glitch to the final betrayal.In a world one keystroke away from total collapse, Elara Nyx—known to the dark web as an untouchable crypto strategist and to her family as Adira Miller—discovers a single, impossible anomaly in her virtual classroom: billions in stolen Bitcoin rerouted through her own long-dead digital decoy. The trail leads straight to the Curators—an elite cabal who believe the dollar must die so they can build a new, ironclad order. Their weapon? The Reset: a deliberate, engineered global crash. Their leverage? Elara's family. Her brother Logan, a brilliant but paranoid hacker, guards his pregnant partner, Cherri. Her daughter Mia hides with her seven-year-old grandson Connor. Her oldest son, Jake, owner of a legitimate security firm, hides darker contracts in the shadows . When a chilling dossier names them all as targets—unborn child, innocent grandson, military-linked son—Elara realizes the Curators aren't just coming for the money. They're coming for her bloodline. Now, hunted across neon-lit Hong Kong streets and encrypted channels, Elara must ally with Kai Reyes—a charismatic, dangerous operative whose loyalty is as uncertain as the night. Together they race to steal proof of the Reset before the first banks fall. But every step deeper into the conspiracy reveals a truth more terrifying: the mole is closer than she thinks. And the price of victory might be the one thing she swore to protect—her family. The first shadow has fallen.
The Reset is live.
And the only way out... is through. In a world where trust is a currency and betrayal is inevitable, one woman will risk everything to keep the digital dark from swallowing the people she loves . Welcome to the endgame.
Who will survive when the system crashes?
