Synopsis

Annie and Tommie are just trying to survive middle school, each other, and the quiet tension of being adopted into a family that holds more secrets than answers. But as the world around them begins to shift—news blackouts, missing people, strange visions—what once felt like a normal life begins to crack.

Set in the final year before the end of the world, this story explores how people react when something unexplainable is creeping in, and the ones you love might be hiding truths even they don’t understand. With every chapter, the veil thins—and Annie, Tommie, and their close friend Aurelia must choose whether to ignore what’s coming or face it head-on.

A slow-burning, character-driven mystery set in a world where the countdown has already begun—but no one knows what it’s counting down to.

How does society, culture, and individual behavior change when faced with imminent doom—or the slim possibility of salvation?
