In a city lit by neon and haunted by stolen memories, one girl discovers the truth is buried inside her mind - and someone will kill to keep it hidden. Nova Raines works the night shift in a rundown diner on the edge of the city, where electric rain and flickering streetlights are part of the landscape. Life is predictable - lonely but safe - until a dying stranger stumbles in and slips her a glowing piece of tech called a memory core. Hours later, Nova is thrown into a world ruled by The Veil, a hidden syndicate that steals memories, erases pasts, and rewrites lives with a cold precision. With the help of a sharp-witted hacker named Kade and a fearless graffiti artist named Lumi, Nova must unlock the secrets inside the core before The Veil's handlers track her down. But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes. The memory core isn't just data. It's someone's life. And when the memories begin leaking into Nova's mind - images of a woman with warm hands, a music box, and the words: love you more than the sky" - Nova realizes what The Veil took from her long ago: Her mother. Now, hunted through abandoned factories, neon alleyways, and blackout districts, Nova has one chance to take back what was stolen - and expose the conspiracy controlling her city from the shadows. Because The Veil doesn't just erase the past, they build their future on it. Fast-paced, emotional, and relentlessly atmospheric, Shadow Beneath the Neon Sky is a cyber-noir mystery about memory, identity, chosen families, and the vow to never forget who you are.
