Detective Margot Voss has spent years moving from city to city, solving crimes most investigators never see.
She works for the Paranormal Crimes Unit—a division tasked with handling incidents that slip between the ordinary world and the supernatural one.
Margot has a rare ability: she can feel the emotional residue people leave behind in places. Grief, fear, violence—traces that linger long after the moment passes.
But her first case in the new city isn't like anything she's encountered before.
Three unexplained incidents in the Kellner district have left investigators with more questions than answers:
A shopkeeper whose storeroom suddenly felt wrong in ways he couldn't explain Five strangers who stopped in the street and stared toward the same building for ninety seconds A woman who briefly stepped into a street that doesn't existDetective Sable Okafor, her new partner, suspects the incidents are connected to something deeper: a disturbance in the boundary between the mundane world and the paranormal one.
When Margot investigates the shopkeeper's storeroom, she discovers something chilling.
A hidden ward—old, powerful, and slowly unraveling.
As the investigation deepens, the detectives uncover records of a similar case decades earlier… one that was supposedly resolved.
Except it wasn't.
The ward wasn't destroyed.
It was moved.
Now someone is manipulating the fabric of the city itself—tightening the boundary in some places, tearing it open in others.
And the consequences are growing.
To stop it, Margot and Sable must navigate a world of hidden magic, secret histories, and the dangerous spaces where reality is thin.
Because if the boundary fails completely, the city won't just face another crime.
It will face something far worse.
