When justice has teeth, someone always bleeds.
Stripped of rank but not her oath, former military judge Josephine Givens crashes into a frozen wasteland—and discovers something that shouldn't exist. Something massive. Something waiting.
The AI calls itself JUDGEMENT. It recognizes her authority. It obeys her verdicts.
In a world where the Meridian Corporation controls life through elevator licenses and oxygen quotas, one woman holds the key to a weapon that fires only when the law allows. Someone buried this warship for a reason. Someone powerful enough to rewrite history itself.
As corporate death squads close in and the body count rises, Josephine must decide: Is she liberating justice or unleashing judgment?
Will she become the arbiter the oppressed need—or the executioner the powerful fear?
