Description

His past didn't break him. It forged a warrior.

12-year-old Jack chooses a life on the streets to being owned by a pimp. 20-year-old Jack walks away from his career rather than endanger those he loves like family. And 28-year old Jack must decide whether he's willing to sacrifice his own principles for someone else's agenda.

Walking away isn't failure. It's survival, freedom, and the chance to fight back. Over time, Jack forges betrayal, loss, and hard-won truths into armour to grow into a fiercely protective hacker vigilante who hunts those who hurt children.

Set before the events of Job Hunt, these three stories (The Power of Zero, Two Divided by Zero, and Zero Rising) reveal how Jack turned trauma into strength—and why underestimating him is always a mistake.
