Untitled expulsion

The fog crept over the sidewalks of the coastal city like a living creature searching for the secrets of old houses. In a forgotten corner of the Al-Manara neighborhood, where shops with salt-eaten wooden facades stood side by side, Elias sat behind his desk, which was submerged in organized chaos.

Summary

In the basements of a coastal city shrouded in fog lives Elias, a genius mechanical clock repairman who rejects modern technology, preferring the sound of gears and springs. His monotonous life is turned upside down when he receives a package from an unknown source containing a complex mechanical device that resembles a clock, but does not measure time. Instead, it counts down to a mysterious event that will take place in 30 days...

Elias discovers that this “machine” is part of the legacy of a physicist who disappeared under mysterious circumstances twenty years ago, and that it is the key to the “Archive Room,” a secret hideout containing solutions to environmental disasters that have not yet occurred. But he is not the only one searching; an organization calling itself “The Guardians of Silence” seeks to destroy the machine on the grounds that knowledge is dangerous to humanity.

Elias is forced to collaborate with “Dr. Hala,” a strict geologist, to decipher the gears before the countdown ends. A breathtaking journey through old maps, abandoned mines, and puzzles based on physics and mechanics, where every minute that passes brings them closer to the truth... or the end. Will Elias succeed in fixing time before it's too late?
