0.42 SecondsIn a city where every citizen is implanted at birth with a microdetonator that can end their life at the system's whim, one boy survives when the machine refuses to kill him. Kael-17 carries the neural patterns of the system's original architect, making him both the greatest threat and the only hope for a population crushed beneath the weight of absolute control. As he flees through the underbelly of the city, hunted by Enforcers and pursued by the remnants of a regime that will stop at nothing to maintain power, Kael discovers that 0.42 seconds of hesitation can change everything-and that sometimes, the spark of revolution begins with a single refused death.
