I've spent my life in the shadows. Watching systems crack, secrets spill and lies unravel with a few keystrokes. Hacking was never about power for me. It was about survival. From a really tough start in life, through to surviving on the streets, I learnt how to do what was needed. My gift in the hacker world is erasing everything, leaving only a glimmer, a hint of what once existed. When my skills put a target on my back, I'm forced into a world far bigger and darker than I ever imagined. I needed to protect the people I loved, even if that meant helping the deadly Eights gang to cover their tracks. This was about much more than just me now. That's when Vulcan found me. Led by the legendary Foresight, Vulcan is the most powerful hacking team on Earth. They hunt predators, dismantle criminal networks, and go where governments can't or won't. Joining them means risking everything: my freedom, my identity, and the people I care about. But walking away isn't an option anymore. As threats escalate and lines blur between right and wrong, I'm pushed to my limits, testing not just what I am capable of, but who I'm willing to become to save myself and my new extended family. Glimmer is a high-octane cyber thriller about power, purpose, and finding your place in a world that wants to use you or erase you. In the digital war between good and evil, you're inside the hacker's mind.
