Echo

Ancient threats don't scare Kaiden Jericho. His partner does.

Kaiden Jericho never called himself a hero. Street kids from nowhere survive, scrape, find people worth protecting-and do anything to keep them alive.

The job had red flags from the start. A Mirai executive with a grudge. Payment too generous. A Helion facility gone dark for reasons nobody believed. What Jericho Solutions found inside wasn't corporate data-it was a name. The Harvester. Ancient. Patient.

Bearing down on a humanity that has 180 years to prepare for something that ended civilizations far older than theirs.

Chief has been changing since Echo-7. Kaiden feels it through their bond: his partner's consciousness reaching into systems it shouldn't touch, processing things he won't share. Mirai, Helion, and a government agency called Trinity are hunting them now. Whatever Chief is becoming, everyone wants to control it.

Jericho Solutions isn't hiding anymore.

Can they build something capable of surviving what's coming-or will the enemies behind them destroy humanity's only advantage before the real war begins?
