When Simba Moyo — gold mine owner, patriarch, tyrant — is poisoned at his own dinner table in rural Zimbabwe, the investigation spirals into something far larger than one family's secrets. TITAN follows five voices across a fractured continent: Shahidi, a systems analyst who sees patterns others can't; Zvisinei, a strategist who understands power as architecture; Ethan, a forensic investigator who trusts only evidence; Nyasha, a journalist following a thread that keeps leading to the same dead ends; and Baba, the old man who knows exactly what was done and why. Together they map a network of resource extraction, institutional corruption, and engineered silence that stretches from the mine shafts of Mashonaland to the boardrooms of three continents. A thriller about what survives when power wants something buried. A character study of five people who refuse to look away. Literary fiction at the pace of a crime novel. For readers of Crichton, le Carré, and NoViolet Bulawayo.
