In a world ruled by weaponized sound, silence is rebellion. The Harmonium Empire controls every frequency, turning music into a tool of oppression, and the city of Auralia, perpetually shrouded in sound-conductive fog, is their stronghold. But within the city’s depths, a spark of resistance flickers. Juno Amati, a brilliant sound engineer haunted by a sonic attack that shattered her past, leads the Phantom Frequencies, a motley crew of music lovers fighting for a world where melody is not a weapon.
Their discovery of the Resonance Engine schematic—a mythical device capable of silencing all sound-based technology—ignites a desperate quest. Etched onto the grooves of a forgotten record, the blueprint becomes their map, each note a clue, each scratch a warning. Their pursuit of the rare earth mineral Vibranium leads them to a desolate mining town and Silas Finch, a recluse with a heightened sensitivity to sound, a gift and a curse.
The Phantom Frequencies must navigate not only sonic ambushes and the relentless Acousticon Legion, but also the moral dilemmas of a world where sound is both weapon and shield. As they race to build the Resonance Engine, they uncover a secret network of saboteurs known as the Silent Symphony, a hidden alliance that offers both aid and further complications. Their actions draw the attention of Commander Andre Hill, whose chilling devotion to the Harmonium Empire fuels his obsessive pursuit.
But the path to silence holds a terrible secret. A hidden subroutine within the Resonance Engine’s design threatens to erase all recorded music, a devastating price for peace. Juno must confront the true cost of her ambition as the Harmonium Empire launches a devastating sonic assault on Auralia, pushing the city to the brink of collapse. Faced with impossible choices, she must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice to reclaim the melody of freedom. Is a world without weaponized sound worth a world without music?
