The Slightest Thread

In the fictional nation of Asteria, Elias Vance walks out of prison after four decades for a terrorist financing plot he did not commit. The conspiracy that destroyed him was not born from grand ideology but from a petty informant's greed, a detective's hunger for promotion, and an accountant's desperate cover-up. As Elias unravels the tangled web of ordinary vices that stole his life, he confronts the terrifying truth that the most devastating evils often begin as a tiny, human desire allowed to fester in the dark.
