The Translators

Nine translators are sequestered in a plush, high-security bunker to work on the final installment of a global bestselling trilogy, cut off from the outside world until the manuscript is complete. What begins as a carefully controlled exercise in secrecy soon gives way to claustrophobic tension: personalities clash, cultural misunderstandings surface, and the gilded surroundings start to feel like a gilded cage as the translators struggle with deadlines, ego, and the pressure of rendering a beloved work into multiple languages.

When chapters of the book inexplicably leak online, suspicion and paranoia ripple through the group, alliances shift, and buried secrets come to light. Equal parts locked-room thriller and sly social satire, the story plays out as a puzzle of motives and misdirection, exploring authorship, fandom, and the invisible art of translation while keeping the audience guessing until the very end.
