Tyche's First

Nathan Chevell has four hours to stop the fall of an empire.

As Captain of the Emperor's Black, it's Nate's job to protect the ruler of all humanity. But when an assassin gets too close, new mind-reading agents—Intelligencers—are handed the keys to imperial security.

Nate's team is ordered to stand down. The enemy strikes. And the Black are no longer welcome at the palace.

With no support, no backup, and no time, Nate must uncover the real threat before it reaches the throne. Because if he fails, the Empire won't just bleed.

It'll burn.
