Adam Dawson came to Finley to disappear for a year.

His music degree is on hold, his relationship with Lily McKinnon is bruised, and the local library job is meant to be ordinary. Then he sees the man in the green chair: filthy coat, clean hands, endless sleep, and a town full of people who step around him as if avoidance were a public service.

The library breathes around Ben. Books print warnings. Children draw chairs they have never seen. Roots listen at windows. Old recordings answer in voices that should be dead. Carol Fowler, the head librarian, has kept the rules for eighteen years, but rules are not truth, and the truth has begun looking for new hosts.

To save Lily, the children, and a town that survived by agreeing not to know, Adam must turn his unfinished music into a weapon. Not a song. Not a cure. A refusal.

Because Ben feeds on completion. And the library has learned him as a habit.
