Some things see you before you see them.
Colonel Brian Blanchard spent twenty years being forgettable. It was the job. Now he's retired - a husband, a father, a man with a tee time and four old friends and the ordinary life he fought hard to earn.
Then his phone buzzes on the driving range. Coordinates. A face in a reflection that's been dead for sixteen years. A message that knows his daughter's name.
The thing Brian helped seal inside a room beneath Bavaria in 1999 was never gone. It was waiting. And in the years since, it has learned something terrible: it doesn't need a door, or a mirror, or a machine.
It only needs to be seen.
As an ordinary Texas morning fractures into something that shouldn't be possible, Brian realizes the threshold was never a place - it's a way of looking. And the one person who sees the way he does, sharper and deeper and without even trying, is twenty-three years old, three states away, and already being watched.
To save her, he'll have to understand what IRIS never could: attention is a choice. And the most dangerous thing you can do to something that feeds on being seen may be the hardest - look away.
A cosmic-horror thriller about perception, inheritance, and the quiet cost of a man who notices everything
