No one saw him-until the law did.
In a city of concrete and shadows, Coil survives by staying invisible. Too small to matter. Too quick to catch. He lives between alleyways and streetlights, learning early that being noticed is dangerous-and that hope costs more than hunger ever could.
When a detective stops long enough to buy him a burger, it's a moment that should mean nothing. But for a boy who has spent his life unseen, that single act of attention begins to unravel the careful rules that kept him alive. A name is remembered. A door opens. And Coil is pulled toward a world he never planned to enter.
Silas is haunted by the same streets Coil walks. Missing children's files pile higher each day, and without proof, the man responsible remains untouchable. Silas can't save them all-but maybe he can save one boy.
As the city tightens around him, Coil must choose between disappearing again or trusting a man who carries his own shadows. Because in Mercy, being seen can save you-or mark you.
A Boy Named Coil is a gritty, emotional coming-of-age urban crime novel about invisibility, chosen family, and the dangerous power of being seen.
