Falling Light

In a world where every smile is a transaction and every act of kindness is a currency, reputation is everything. For Soren Valen, a Senior Mediator with a near-perfect score of 9.8, life is comfortable, safe, and secure. But in a society governed by digital social rankings, the difference between a king and a ghost is a single heartbeat. When Soren tries to help a woman in need in the public square, the system turns against him.
In an instant, his score drops to zero. The consequences are immediate and devastating. His home is locked. His assets are frozen. His friends turn their backs. Most painfully, his twelve-year-old daughter, Mina, is torn from his arms to be "reassigned" to a high-score family. In the eyes of the city, Soren no longer exists. He is a ghost in the machine. Cast out into the mud and ruins of the Outer Zones, Soren must learn to survive in a world where he is invisible.
But he isn't alone. With the help of a group of outcasts who have learned to live without numbers, he embarks on a high-stakes mission to break back into the city that deleted him. Time is running out. He has seventy-two hours before Mina is lost forever to the system. To save her, Soren must face the cold, mechanical logic of his own former colleagues and confront the dark truth about the system he once helped build.
Falling Light: Finding Beauty in the Zero is a gripping social thriller that explores what remains when everything you thought defined you is stripped away. It is a cinematic story of second chances, the unbreakable bond between a father and daughter, and the revolutionary power of being a human being in a world of numbers.
