J. K. Corvus writes speculative fiction about the architecture of memory, the politics of forgetting, and the quiet stubbornness of people who refuse to stop feeling. A former systems engineer who spent two decades building infrastructure for institutions, he now builds fictional ones and tears them down. He lives in Florida with too many screens, not enough bookshelves, and an abiding conviction that the most dangerous thing a government can do is decide which memories its citizens deserve to keep. The Fire and the Bridge is his debut trilogy.

Résumé
Avra Solis is a fifteen-year-old introvert who has survived four foster homes, a near-future America that confuses safety with surveillance, and the persistent ache behind her sternum that she has never been able to explain. Then she touches the wrong object in an abandoned chapel and wakes up a thousand years in the future. The gleaming city that greets her has no shadows, no corners, and no real emotions.
Citizens see curated reality through ocular implants. An ancient AI called Scion runs everything and has been waiting for Avra specifically. Her DNA carries a power called the Fire: a temporal antibody that disrupts the regime's infrastructure on contact. To the resistance fighters hiding underground, she is the weapon they have needed for eleven years. To the regime, she is a threat to be harvested.
To Scion, she is something neither side has accounted for, a variable. But the Fire has a cost. Every use erases a memory. Not randomly; it takes the things that matter. Her teacher's name. Her mother's face. The feeling of being held. And the erosion is exponential: each use multiplies the next. Worse, the Fire consumes awareness of its own damage. She cannot feel what is being taken. Avra finds unexpected belonging among the Radiance: Rumi, who brings dirt tea at midnight and does not demand conversation; Kess, who respects competence over power; and Caden, the quiet boy who mirrors her introversion so perfectly it feels like recognition.
For the first time in her life, she is not performing normalcy for people who do not understand silence. But in a world built on deception, trust is the most dangerous thing she can offer. And the regime hunting her is led by someone with the same bloodline, the same power, and a thousand-year head start. The Mistaken Hero is the first book in The Fire and the Bridge trilogy. It is a YA science fiction series about memory, identity, and the courage it takes to let people see you are struggling.
It is perfect for readers who loved the moral weight of The Hunger Games, the found-family warmth of The Raven Cycle, and the AI complexity of Klara and the Sun.
