Jessa Klein lives for the past. As an archivist at the Resonance Institute, she knows that every document tells a story. But when she finds her mentor murdered in the stacks, she realizes some stories are meant to stay buried. Dr. Julian Vance died for a secret: a systematic pattern of historical erasure spanning centuries. Armed only with a fragment of an ancient map and a desperate need for justice, Jessa is thrust into a lethal game of cat and mouse. Her only ally is Kaelen O'Connell, a cynical detective who has seen too much of the city's underbelly to believe in coincidences. From subterranean tunnels to high-society galas, the duo uncovers a conspiracy masterminded by the powerful Silas Blackwood. For generations, the Blackwood family has been rewriting the city’s records to cement a legacy built on lies. Now, they are preparing to activate the Resonator—a device designed to wipe the digital slate clean forever. With private enforcers closing in and the clock ticking toward a total memory blackout, Jessa and Kaelen must risk everything to expose the corruption. In a world where the truth is being deleted, how much will they sacrifice to ensure that what echoes remain can finally be heard?

The Society of Harmonists promises peace through resonance, but their harmony is built on a foundation of screams. Aris Thorne is a man of order. As a Resonance Archivist, his life is dedicated to cataloging the vibrations of the past. But when he is sent to investigate a spatial anomaly known as the Whisper in the Static, he discovers a frequency he was never meant to hear. There, he meets Emelia Vance, a haunted medium whose family was brutally harvested decades ago to fuel the Society's power grid. Together, they uncover a terrifying conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of the Society—implicating Aris’s own father and the ruthless security chief, Silas Blackwood. The archives aren't just records; they are a graveyard of stolen psychic trauma. To expose the truth, Aris and Emelia must descend into the decaying sub-levels of the compound, dodging guards and psychic traps to broadcast the Society’s dark secrets to the world. In a race against a system designed to rewrite memory itself, can one archivist and a broken medium break the cycle of silence? Shattered Vows is a high-stakes journey into the heart of a dystopian nightmare where the truth is the most dangerous vibration of all.

Mystery

Silence is the only safety in the Dead Zone. Kenedi Reed and Asher Thorne thought they had finally earned their peace, trading the violence of the Forbidden Perimeter for a quiet life in the wasteland. But when a rhythmic, heartbeat-like 'ghost signal' begins to pulse through the air, their retirement comes to a violent end. This isn't just a broadcast. It's a precision-engineered sonic sweep that turns human researchers into biological transmitters. As Kenedi and Asher investigate the ionized ash of Outpost 4, they realize the horrific truth: a rogue architect is using survivors as tuning forks to trigger a global synaptic override. To stop the signal, they must forge a dangerous alliance with the very people they fled. From high-speed armored transport to the reality-warping boundaries of the Core, Kenedi and Asher must race against a ticking clock to shut down the amplification spire. But in a world where the air itself is a weapon, can they trust their own minds? The Ghost Signal is a high-octane sci-fi thriller that explores the thin line between technology and evolution, and the lengths we go to for the people we love.

Blackwood Manor is dying, sinking into the hungry Louisiana mud. For professional archivist Eleanor Vance, returning to her ancestral home isn't a homecoming—it’s an autopsy. Tasked with liquidating the estate of her late uncle, she expects to find dusty ledgers and fading memories. Instead, she unearths a shadow world of forged art and a diary that screams murder.

But as the humidity rises, so does the danger. Eleanor’s cousin Arthur is desperate to protect the family’s lucrative, illegal legacy, and he’s willing to bury Eleanor alongside the truth.

In the bayou, some secrets are better left submerged, but the Blackwood lineage demands a final, fiery reckoning. As the manor threatens to consume them all, Eleanor discovers that the most dangerous thing about her family isn't the lies they told—it's the lengths they’ll go to keep them. A haunting gothic thriller perfect for fans of atmospheric suspense and dark family legacies.
