In a starving city where order is the last illusion of survival, the ration line stretches farther than anyone can measure-and no one remembers where it truly begins.
Anya Voss joins the queue after hearing her missing son was last seen near Distribution Sector Three. But the longer she waits, the more she realizes the line is not a system of aid-it is a machine of control. Ruled by silent marshals, enforced by violence, and sustained by obedience, the line feeds more than hunger. It feeds something beneath the city.
As people disappear near the front and whispers spread of tunnels below, Anya breaks the only rule that matters: stay in line. What she discovers is far worse than starvation-a hidden network where bodies are processed, children are conditioned, and the promise of food is maintained through ritual sacrifice.
But when the truth reaches the surface, the line begins to collapse.
And something else begins to form.
A haunting, psychologically charged gothic horror, The Ration Line explores what happens when survival demands submission-and when breaking free may be the most dangerous choice of all.
