In 2025 those in power have abandoned the truth. Now a force from the past is stepping out of the shadows. During World War II, a small covert group of Dutch engineers risked everything to supply critical intelligence to the Allied Forces. Known to British Intelligence only as Code Name: Heidemij, they vanished after the war—buried in legend, whispered about in elite circles, forgotten by the world. Until now.
As political instability rocks global governments and the word "sustainability" takes on a chilling new urgency, the Heidemij must rise again. The world doesn’t need more politicians. It needs engineers with a plan—and the will to act. Local Zone launches this summer, kicking off The Heidemij Uprising, a gripping tech thriller series. Meet Daniel Brewster—civil engineer, ex-military pilot, and global consultant for engineering giant Arcadis—who’s pulled into a secretive network of technical minds with one mission: stop a devastating plot that could bring a world superpower to its knees. Engineers built the modern world. Now they must save it. Prepare for action, conspiracy, and the power of technical minds unleashed.
