A MAN CAN CHANGE HIS NAME.

HE CAN CHANGE HIS FACE.

HE CAN BURY A PASSPORT.

BUT THE MODERN WORLD REMEMBERS.

It remembers faces. Voices. Money. Movements. The people we love.

AND SOMETIMES IT REMEMBERS ENOUGH
TO BRING A DEAD MAN HOME.

WHO DECIDES
WHO YOU ARE?

Mateo Álvarez wants only one thing: a different life.

But when a journey across borders pulls him into the orbit of intelligence officers, criminal networks and people who seem to exist under more than one identity, he discovers that the past he inherited may have been constructed long before he was old enough to understand it.

A forgotten radio. A hidden archive. Seven names. A system built to make governments believe a person exists.

From Medellín to Miami, Rome, Nairobi, Geneva, London and Toronto, Mateo is drawn into a conspiracy involving cyber surveillance, false identities, organised crime and a decades-old programme capable of manipulating the systems the modern world uses to establish truth.

SEVEN CLUES.
ONE TRUTH.

Seven objects sit at the centre of the mystery. Touch one. The meaning changes.
