The Thin Line Between Love and Hate
In Geneva, 2008, financial analyst Jules Blanchery begins uncovering disturbing patterns hidden within the global financial system. As his investigation deepens, his professional ambitions, personal relationships, and moral convictions collide, forcing him to question who he can trust—and how far he is willing to go for the truth.
Die With Your Boots On
Years after Geneva, Jules has rebuilt his life in London as a successful investor, leaving his past behind and convincing himself that he has moved on. But when COVID hits, the world begins repeating the same patterns he witnessed in 2008—and once again, everything he has built is taken away from him, pushing Jules toward a breaking point.
The Good Side of Evil
The events of Die With Your Boots On finally push Jules to embrace his shadow—the darker, more ruthless side he has spent years suppressing. He abandons the identity of Jules Blanchery and becomes Shard, leader of a growing rebellion against a financial system now controlled by the undead bankers. To bring the system down, Shard must become the very thing he once feared—and turn his darkness into a weapon.
