Yet, by morning, Kyle is gone – vanished without a word, leaving Alex breathless and confused. Desperate for answers, she sets out to find him, unknowingly plunging into a dark, dangerous world. As the truth of Kyle’s identity unravels, Alex is pulled into a twisted supernatural secret that shatters her perception of reality.
