London, 1950.
The future of flight is about to take off-and crash.
The Iron Comet, Britain's most advanced prototype jet, stands as a symbol of hope in the grim post-war years. But when sabotage ignites the hangar and a young engineer dies under suspicious circumstances, the dream of progress turns deadly.
Jack Falcon, war hero turned covert investigator, is pulled into a world where industrial espionage and political blackmail intertwine. From the smoke-choked streets of London to the sunlit alleys of Lisbon, Falcon hunts the truth behind a conspiracy known only as The Steel Syndicate-a shadow network of magnates and spies profiting from endless conflict.
Assisted by his loyal mechanic Sparks, the brilliant engineer Dr. Evelyn Marlowe, and the world-weary Inspector Foyle, Falcon races against time to unmask a saboteur before the Iron Comet's maiden flight ends in catastrophe. But the deeper he digs, the clearer the truth becomes: the enemy isn't foreign-it's within.
And when a ghost from Falcon's wartime past resurfaces, the mission becomes personal.
Old loyalties will shatter.
The sky itself will turn into a battlefield.
