Something in Port Orion has learned how to wear familiar faces.
Anne has always known when something is wrong.
In the fog-bound town of Port Orion, wrongness has a pattern. Smiles linger too long. Reflections move a second too late. Familiar voices return wearing borrowed warmth. Beneath the town, something ancient is learning how to turn memory, love, and ordinary life into a trap.
When impossible messages begin appearing and the people she trusts no longer seem entirely human, Anne discovers that Port Orion has been hiding a truth older than anyone remembers. There are places where reality thins. Places where copies speak with the voices of the living. Places where the greatest danger is not being hunted... it is forgetting who you are.
To save the people she loves, Anne must enter a hidden field where identity can be rewritten, memories can be consumed, and every choice threatens to leave something of herself behind.
As the boundary between the real and the false begins to collapse, Anne must decide whether the truth is worth surviving.
The Devourers and the Flame is a supernatural thriller blending psychological horror, eerie small-town mystery, and cosmic dread into a story about memory, identity, grief, and the quiet courage required to remain yourself when the world insists you become someone else.
When the copies know your memories, how do you prove you are still the original?
