The Memory Auction

In Neonspire, 2087, memories are currency—sold legally, traded darkly. Detective Mira Calloway hunts the Veil, a black market peddling the traumatic *MemPrints* of the dead, until a raid uncovers her own childhood nightmare up for bid: a fire, a scream, her mother's voice lost to smoke. The Ghost, a shadowy broker, claims it's a key—to her past, to a conspiracy binding the city's soul. As Mira digs, she finds her father, Elias, sparked the memory trade, her mother, Jana, its first victim—both burned by Lumora, the corp now ruling Neonspire's minds. With her tech-savvy partner Lina, Mira goes rogue, cracking vaults and cutting heads—Drennan, Holt, Senn—broadcasting Lumora's sins to a waking city. But Kael Voss, the Veil's scarred mastermind, holds the final thread: Jana's fate. In a world where trauma is power, Mira's war is just beginning.
