Immortality is never free. It is paid by someone else.
In the New Imperium, longevity is not earned.
It is extracted.
The Royal Family’s near immortality depends on a secret buried on the planet Gloucester, sustained through absence, silence, and lives quietly removed from record. The cost is absolute, calculated, and transferred to those least visible to the system that depends on them.
Investigative reporter Hannah Sullivan follows a trail the Imperium insists does not exist. The deeper she looks, the clearer the exchange becomes.
Immortality is never free.
It is paid by someone else.
In Immortal Legacy, immortality is not a scientific miracle.
It is an industry.
Set within the vast reach of the New Imperium, the novel examines a civilization where the ruling elite have quietly extended their lives by transferring the cost elsewhere. They sustain longevity through systems they design to operate without scrutiny, without resistance, and without interruption. Citizens do not revolt. They simply disappear.
Investigative reporter Hannah Sullivan enters this machinery while pursuing what appears to be a single administrative anomaly. As she follows the trail, she uncovers an economy built on stolen years, managed through protocol, omission, and silence. What she finds is not a conspiracy in hiding, but a process functioning exactly as intended.
Immortal Legacy is not a story about heroes saving the world. It is a record of how systems endure by making atrocity routine, and how power survives when its consequences are rendered invisible. Through political tension, ethical science fiction, and investigative restraint, the novel explores exploitation, complicity, and the cost of progress when survival becomes the highest value.
Dark, grounded, and unflinching, Immortal Legacy questions whether a civilization that conquers death can do so without surrendering what makes it human.
