    In June 2021, Sarah Walker, a meticulous FBI accountant, is handed a seemingly simple assignment in Colorado just before her vacation. Aboard Flight 382 from New York to Denver, disaster strikes when both engines explode shortly after takeoff. Miraculously, Sarah survives the crash, the sole survivor of 160 passengers, only to discover the horrifying truth: the crash was no accident, but a meticulously planned sabotage by the very agency she served. The botched explosion, intended to leave no trace, has instead left a witness – her.  
    Haunted by the fiery carnage and hunted by her former colleagues, Sarah embarks on a perilous journey across continents. From the deceptive tranquility of Germany, where a calculated romance with FBI spy Albert Hoffman crumbles into deadly betrayal, to the brutal confines of an American prison, and finally to the vibrant but precarious streets of Haiti, Sarah is relentlessly pursued. As she uncovers the FBI's dark secrets – a web of corruption and abuse of power that reaches the highest levels – she must use all her skills and resilience to expose the truth and survive, even if it means sacrificing everything. But the FBI's reach is long, and their secrets are worth killing for, leading Sarah to a tragic final confrontation where she utters, "This is the end..." before taking her own life.

When a daring jewel heist disrupts the city's elite, a mysterious masked figure intervenes, leaving behind more questions than answers. Gilbert Standerton, a young man tormented by financial anxiety and a cold engagement to the ambitious Edith Cathcart, finds his life entangled with a band of jewel thieves, a haunting street melody, and a string of crimes that unravel the very fabric of high society.
