03:14 AM GMT. The world didn't end with a bang. It ended with a disappearance.
In a single heartbeat, every nuclear warhead on Earth vanishes. From the ICBM silos of Montana to the depths of the Barents Sea, the world's most terrifying weapons are gone—leaving no trace, no radiation, and no explanation.
The silence is short-lived.
As the "nuclear leash" snaps, the thin veneer of global diplomacy shatters. Without the threat of Mutually Assured Destruction, the world's superpowers find a terrifying new freedom. Cyber-sabotage, autonomous drone swarms, and brutal conventional invasions erupt across the globe. From the Suwalki Gap to the South China Sea, the "Long Peace" is replaced by a high-tech holocaust.
One man is responsible: Dr. Marek Soltan, a brilliant physicist driven by a tragic past and a chilling vision of the future. Hidden in a sunken fortress beneath an Icelandic glacier, he holds the world's fire in his hands. But he hasn't just stolen the weapons; he has rewritten the laws of reality.
Lina Torres, a relentless investigative journalist, is the only one who can reach him. As she navigates a world tearing itself apart, she discovers a secret far more dangerous than the vanishing warheads. Marek didn't just want to disarm the world—he saw a future where humanity's end was a mathematical certainty. Now, the superpowers are uniting for the first time in history, not to seek peace, but to hunt down the man who took their power.
Day Zero is a cinematic, globe-spanning techno-thriller that explores the thin line between security and madness. In a world without nukes, humanity is finally forced to face its own reflection.
The nukes are gone. The mercy is next.
