In 2068, oxygen isn't a human right. It’s a currency.
​High above the toxic, flooded ruins of Manhattan floats The Stratosphere—a gleaming utopia where the elite breathe pure, filtered air. Down below, in the lethal depths of The Drowned Apple, the rest of humanity fights for scraps in a suffocating world of acid rain and sulfurous smog.
​Caleb is a deep-water salvager, gambling his life to strip old-world tech from the submerged wreckage of Wall Street just to afford another week of synthetic breath. But his latest dive unearths a pristine, biometric-locked black cylinder that awakens a deadly global conspiracy.
​The Drowned Apple: The Last Breath is a gripping, fast-paced dystopian sci-fi novella packed with deep-sea survival, cybernetic rebellion, and a fight for the very future of humanity.
