Some stories refuse to stay buried. Others are written in blood.
Bestselling thriller author Ethan Cross is used to late nights fueled by caffeine and imagination. But when a mysterious file titled Dead in Drafts.docx appears on his laptop, he finds himself trapped in a plot he didn't create. The manuscript doesn't just describe crimes; it predicts them with lethal, impossible detail.
As the fictional murders manifest in the real world, Ethan realizes the victims are people from his own past. With Detective Harper closing in and a character he created-the sharp-eyed Clara-appearing on city street corners, the line between fiction and reality has shattered. Ethan must now navigate a recursive spiral of erased paragraphs and haunted manuscripts to outsmart an adaptive, sentient narrative that knows his every fear.
In a world where every keystroke is a countdown, who is truly holding the pen?
If your life is the final draft, what happens when the story decides it's time to type The End?
