Publisher Description

The war is over. The digital plague contained. And yet, Alexander Hawkes doesn't trust the new peace.

With the Sorcerer threat silenced and his organization finally unified, Alexander should be celebrating. Instead, he's hunting shadows. The corrupt Salt Baron Vaz-Mar has submerged into the galaxy's criminal underworld. He’s weaponized his considerable fortune against them, funding gangs and lowly mercenary outfits.

Vaz-Mar will mold them into something even more terrifying. Shadow armies. The kind that fight in the stillness.

While grappling with this new threat, Alexander struggles to find answers for his own strange existence. His body might not be his own. Four suspects the ancient and powerful progenitor of the Sorcerers and the DNA conspicuously missing from Alexander's cells are connected. How? The answers may lie with his AI friend’s creator, the Fold. But they’re an enigma no one alive has ever seen. They are a myth. Legend. And only one group ever unearthed meaningful answers about them.

To find the truth, Alexander Hawkes and his friends will have to dig into secrets the galaxy buried long ago. He will have to unearth the Antares Code.
