A hard-edged cyberpunk noir set in a rain-soaked England where loyalty is currency, truth is contraband, and survival always comes at a price.
Deckard Ross and Bucky are muscle-for-hire—men who don’t ask questions, only how much time they’ve got before things go wrong. When a job pulls them into Portsmouth’s underworld, they find themselves caught between crime lords, corporate interests, and a piece of technology powerful enough to destroy what little balance remains.
What starts as a routine extraction spirals into betrayal, violence, and a reckoning that forces every character to choose what they’re willing to lose—and what they refuse to sell.
This is a tight, cinematic short story filled with neon-lit docks, brutal confrontations, and moral ambiguity. There are no heroes here—only survivors.
