Minutes to Live

In Chronos City, time isn’t money—it’s life. And Jake is running out.

Every citizen is born with a countdown. Once it hits zero, you die. No appeals. No mercy. Controlled by the ruthless ChronosCorp, time is earned by the minute, traded like currency, and stolen by the powerful. The rich live for centuries. The poor don’t make it past thirty.

Jake has twenty-six million minutes—and they’re vanishing fast. Orphaned, out of time, and marked for expiration, he should be just another silent casualty of the system. But when a daring act of defiance reveals a forgotten secret—one that could dismantle the time economy—Jake becomes a symbol for something far more dangerous than rebellion: hope.

Hunted by Timekeepers, betrayed by allies, and haunted by the ticking clock on his wrist, Jake must choose between surviving quietly or risking everything to ignite a revolution. Because in a world where every second is stolen, giving your time could be the most powerful weapon of all.

The clock is their cage.

But Jake is about to break it.

Minutes to Live is a pulse-pounding dystopian thriller about resistance, sacrifice, and the courage to fight for a future worth living—before time runs out.
