The sterile, electric pulse of the modern world vibrates around Jason Todd, a man whose shadow seems to drink the light. Death Cast, a cold new algorithm, promises a final alert on a person's last living day. Jason surveys the city with eyes hardened by cynicism, feeling immune to its menace. He has stared into the void and crawled back out; the threat of an endpoint call means nothing to someone who has already stolen himself from the grave. He sneers at the wealthy elites bankrolling such control, his expression tightening as the ghost of his first death aches in his bones. No second ending will take him.
