Step back into the neon-lit 1980s, where tensions run high and secrets simmer beneath the surface of Maple Fusion Energy Facility, Calgary’s primary nuclear power plant. When a unexpected event threatens to ruin our night, it sets off a chain reaction of fear, paranoia, and deceit.


As the tensions rises, the clock ticks down to a catastrophic meltdown. Grab your magnifying glass as you uncover a web of lies, betrayal, and corporate espionage. The deeper you dig, the more you may realize that everyone has something to hide—and someone will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried.


In a world where the stakes are nuclear, can you solve the case before it’s too late, or will the truth be buried in the fallout?


Get ready for an electrifying whodunit where every twist could be your last!
