What if the person you replaced at work had vanished without a trace?

Jake Serrano has just landed his dream job at Resolute, a Seattle tech giant known for its lucrative pay, limitless career opportunities, and a nasty habit of crushing anyone failing to meet its high standards. But the company's notorious work culture isn't the only thing Jake finds shocking; he soon discovers that his predecessor, Jessie, has vanished without a trace.

Navigating the intense pressure of his new job, Jake becomes consumed with unraveling the mystery of Jessie's disappearance. As her replacement, he has a unique opportunity to uncover the secrets she left behind. But the deeper he delves, the more convinced he becomes that the key to solving the case lies within Resolute itself; could groundbreaking technology - with the power to save millions of lives - have cost Jessie her own?

With everything on the line - including his career and personal safety - Jake must decide if he's willing to risk it all to uncover the truth. Packed with complex characters and a vivid setting, this gripping tale of ambition, deception, and betrayal will keep you captivated until the very last page.
