In the city of New Avalon, where a fascia of riches hides dishonesty and backstabbing, a rebellious group of thieves sets their sights on the impenetrable vault of wealthy Victor Crane. It's said to hold a vast treasure of valuable gems. The team is headed by Jax "The Ghost" Malone, a likeable former criminal with a talent for pulling off unbelievable robberies. His crew consists of: Lena Voss, a technological whiz; Marcus "Bear" Tate, a powerful strongman; and Evie Quinn, a deceptive swindler. They come up with a bold scheme: to put a tiny camera on Crane's jacket to discover the vault's secrets, copy his fingerprint, and imitate the voice of his business partner, Sophia Laurent. As they get closer to Crane, visiting places like his expensive dry cleaners and personal gym, the team learns that the vault has a two-part security system. It needs Crane's fingerprint and Sophia's voice at the same time. But things aren't as straightforward as they seem. Lena's developing feelings for Jax begin to distract her, while Evie's impulsive flirting and Marcus's troubled history cause problems within the group. Then there's Dorian Black, a competing thief whose frustrating success and arrogant attitude make him a despised but dangerous enemy. As the robbery progresses, acts of disloyalty, passionate moments, and thrilling pursuits push the team to their limits. With time running out and Crane's security getting tighter, the crew must navigate relationships, devotion, and deceit to complete the heist—or risk losing everything in the resulting turmoil.

Once a ghost, always a ghost. Ethan Vale, a quiet locksmith in East London, hides from a past that officially doesn’t exist. Years ago, he was an MI5 infiltration specialist — until a mission in Prague went wrong, his entire team was killed, and his name was erased. He’s lived in silence since. Until one rain-soaked night, a woman named Clara Daines bursts into his shop with a bleeding shoulder and a biometric case she claims holds evidence of a government conspiracy. Hours later, armed men arrive. Ethan’s calm life is shattered in seconds. When he opens the case, he finds something impossible — an active MI5 kill order with his name on it, dated that same day. Hunted by his own agency, Ethan partners with Detective Isla Hart, a sharp but idealistic investigator chasing a string of assassinations linked to a defunct MI5 unit known as Division 9 — the same unit Ethan once led. As Ethan unravels the mystery, he discovers Division 9 never truly ended — it evolved into The Consortium, a covert alliance manipulating London’s surveillance systems to engineer obedience. Every crime, every target, every “accident” is part of a digital control plan called Project Echelon II. The closer Ethan gets to the truth, the more he realizes: Division 9 didn’t just erase him. It rebuilt him — piece by piece. And now, the ghosts he buried are coming back… wearing his face. The final revelation will force Ethan to confront the deepest question of all: Is he still human — or just another trace in someone else’s code?
