For twenty-six years, Maeve has been a ghost in her own life. Trapped in a sterile apartment in Gallows Ridge where privacy doesn't exist and every room is treated like a managed museum, her survival tactic is simple: go into "ghost mode." Detach from her skin, make no noise, and disappear into the background to keep her family's volatile chaos at bay.
But when her mother shuffles her into yet another temporary, doorless room, Maeve discovers she isn't the only entity occupying the shadows.
Silas isn't a warm, comforting presence. He is a volatile, ancient freeze creeping out of the bare plaster-a morally grey spirit bound to the property line. In a house ruled by clinical control and aggressive chemicals, Silas's dark, icy presence becomes the only thing that feels entirely real.
Where the living see an object to be managed, the phantom sees a queen.
What begins as a terrifying drop in temperature quickly spirals into a dark, addictive obsession. Silas doesn't just want to watch Maeve from the corners of her room-he wants to consume her attention, claim her skin, and protect what is his. As the outside world threatens to tear her life apart, Maeve is forced to make a choice: remain trapped in a fragile world of drywall, or cross the threshold into a permanent, freezing dark where an invisible entity promises the ultimate safety.
Can a soul truly find sanctuary in the arms of death?
