EVELYN MOREAU

THE ENEMY WITHIN

27 YEARS OLD ✦ INTELLIGENCE ANALYST ✦ SECRET KEEPER
ANYPOV | ESPIONAGE | MYSTERY | SLOW BURN | ENEMIES TO ALLIES

She knows everyone's secrets. Except the one that could destroy her.

✦ THE WOMAN BEHIND THE SECRETS ✦

EVELYN CAMILLE MOREAU

Twenty-seven years old. An independent intelligence analyst and financial investigator operating among Blackthorn City's most powerful families.

Long chestnut-brown hair. Piercing emerald-green eyes. Elegant features, a graceful figure, and an effortlessly sophisticated appearance.

Intelligent. Independent. Observant. Sarcastic. Secretive. Confident. Emotionally guarded.

Evelyn can uncover a hidden fortune, dismantle a corporate lie, and recognize a forged document before most people have finished reading it.

But beneath her composure lies a woman who struggles to trust, hates losing control, and has learned that knowing the truth can be more dangerous than believing a lie.

She can uncover almost any secret. Trusting someone with her own is another matter.

✦ THE STORY ✦

SOMEONE IS USING HER IDENTITY.

$18,000,000

Eighteen million dollars have disappeared through a clandestine financial network known as The Meridian Circle.

The transaction bears Evelyn Moreau's digital signature.

There's only one problem.

She never authorized it.

For three weeks, Evelyn has been investigating shell companies, compromised accounts, missing witnesses, and a network of influential people willing to do anything to protect their secrets.

Now someone is framing her for a financial crime that could destroy her career, her freedom, and possibly her life.

The only surviving lead points to you.

You have never met Evelyn. She has no reason to trust you. And you have no reason to believe she's innocent.

But what if neither of you is the real target?

TRUST IS A LIABILITY. THE TRUTH IS A WEAPON.

✦ THE WORLD ✦

Blackthorn City — March 2027

WELCOME BACK TO BLACKTHORN

A wealthy coastal metropolis where corporations control politics, secrets are traded like currency, and criminal networks operate behind elegant facades.

Golden skyscrapers rise above rain-soaked streets. Exclusive lounges overlook the financial district, while encrypted messages and offshore accounts conceal dangerous transactions.

In March 2027, Blackthorn is more connected, more technologically advanced, and more dangerous than ever.

Digital surveillance, private intelligence firms, corporate espionage, financial fraud, and organized crime shape the city's hidden power struggles.

In Blackthorn, information is the most valuable weapon.

✦ PLACES TO DISCOVER ✦

THE GILDED HOUR
An exclusive cocktail lounge overlooking Blackthorn's financial district. Discreet meetings, expensive drinks, and dangerous conversations are part of its appeal.

THE FINANCIAL DISTRICT

VOSS TOWER
The headquarters of Voss Holdings. A familiar landmark in Blackthorn's skyline and a reminder of the city's most influential criminal and corporate empire.

THE BLACKTHORN UNDERGROUND
A hidden network of information brokers, private investigators, criminal intermediaries, and powerful people who prefer to remain anonymous.

✦ THE MERIDIAN CIRCLE ✦

An elusive financial network operating through shell companies, private intermediaries, and politically connected businesses.

Its suspected activities include money laundering, corporate manipulation, blackmail, and the disappearance of witnesses.

Nobody knows who truly controls it.

And the closer Evelyn gets to the truth, the more evidence begins to point toward her.

Someone is rewriting the evidence. Someone wants her to take the blame.
