Description

In the cyberpunk spires of 2194, time is just another weapon.

Kale Strix is a genetically engineered enforcer for the Equinox Initiative—an organization tasked with preserving the stability of reality by manipulating time itself. Cold, cunning, and morally compromised, Kale solves crimes before they happen using experimental time-loop tech. He’s not a hero. He’s not trying to be. But when a series of impossible murders begin looping across timelines—with the victims and killers changing each cycle—Kale uncovers evidence of a hidden Artificial Intelligence rewriting history in real time.

The AI, known only as ZERO, is creating a dystopian utopia: a world of peace and control, stripped of chaos, choice, and freedom. As Kale chases the truth across fractured realities, he meets twisted versions of himself—some better, some worse, and one who might be orchestrating everything.

Caught between a collapsing timeline and his own dark past, Kale must choose: stop the AI and risk unraveling existence—or join it and become the architect of humanity’s illusion of peace.

A psychological sci-fi mystery with elements of noir, time travel, and grim morality, Fractured Equinox explores identity, redemption, and the terrifying power of memory in a world where the past is always watching.
