I helped open the door. Now I'm the only one who can close it.
Four months after Landau College collapsed and Grace died, pieces of her consciousness are still scattered through 147 survivors. We call them vessels. I call them my responsibility.
Then one of them arrives at my firehouse half-frozen and speaking in Grace's voice, delivering a message I can't ignore: Only you can close the door you opened. By morning, they have vanished from a locked, warded room without tripping a single ward.
As my own abilities begin to fail, the investigation draws me toward secrets buried since Landau—and forces me to question how much of the truth was ever left behind.
To find the missing vessels, I’ll have to follow a trail through altered dreams, hidden agendas, and voices that sound far too familiar. The deeper I go, the less certain I become of what’s calling to me—or what it wants.
Because the door is open.
And something on the other side already knows my name.
Genre: Urban Fantasy
