The Logic of Legacy

At midnight, atop the tallest spire in the city, Dr. Elias Grey arrives to audit a document that will determine the fate of a global empire. Alexander Hale, a man who has systematically alienated every ally he ever had, needs Grey to verify that his "Legacy Preservation" contract is ironclad. But as Grey dissects the syntax of power, he discovers that the greatest threat to Hale's control isn't a legal loophole, but the logical consequence of his own loneliness.
