Trig was built to obey. A memory-wiped enforcer for the elite, he collects debts in a poisoned city where sunlight is a luxury and children are currency. But when a mission leads him to a woman who claims to be his mother-and reveals the Towers' darkest secret-Trig must choose between the system that shaped him and the truth that could shatter it.

From the smog-choked slums to the glass spires of power, Above the Smog is a relentless, emotionally charged dystopian thriller about identity, resistance, and the cost of remembering. With razor-sharp chapters and no filler, this is a story for readers who crave momentum, heart, and a hero who wasn't supposed to exist.
