The Famine of Vengeance

Gabriel Finch, the illegitimate son cast aside by the powerful Cartwright dynasty, returns decades later as a ghost in the machine. Now a brilliant systems architect, he has embedded himself within the Federal Benefits Authority, wielding its omniscient algorithm as a scalpel. His goal is not merely to destroy his father, industrial magnate Lord Henry Cartwright, but to orchestrate a slow, surgical divestment of everything the family holds sacred: wealth, reputation, sanity, and legacy. Yet every victory only deepens the void within him, revealing a hunger that demands the ultimate filler—human life itself.
