The Ashford Reckoning

In the vein of Robert Goddard, a fractured narrative unfolds across two timelines. When a manipulated clip turns a schoolboy into a nationwide pariah, his sister vanishes into the digital shadows. Eight years later, a series of bespoke accidents strikes down the online mob one by one, forcing a weary detective to untangle a web of institutional cover-ups, secret journals, and a vigilante who has redefined the boundary between justice and vengeance.
