In a world where freedom is a memory and every thought is monitored, one man's fractured mind may be the last hope for survival.

ThreadBare is a debugger-an elite, implanted servant in a society obsessed with control. When his closest friend is lost and the woman he loves is forcibly altered, ThreadBare is thrust into a desperate struggle for survival. As the City of Temples erupts in violence, he must protect a group of gifted children, outwit ruthless masters, and navigate a labyrinth of betrayals-both human and machine.

Haunted by cryptic messages, hunted by sentinels, and pursued across a landscape where technology and faith collide, ThreadBare's journey will lead him from the shattered ruins of his old life to the hidden enclaves of the resistance, and finally to the edge of the world, where he must confront the ultimate question: What does it mean to be free when even your memories can be rewritten?
