An English reconnaissance unit vanished deep in Serbia in 1915. Months later, two soldiers returned-marked by trauma, changed beyond recognition, and obsessed with a place no one could find on any map: Velinovac. A chapel that breathes. Children without eyes. A village not buried in soil, but in memory. Velinovac was never found-because it was never meant to be.

"We all leave pieces of ourselves behind in the cities we once walked." Felix Wagner is not a hero. He's an ordinary man burdened by memories, regrets, and a love he thought he had lost forever. Years after parting from Eva, a letter pulls him from the quiet town of Steyr back into the heart of his past. From Vienna to Linz, with stops in Hallstatt, Zurich, Prague, and Florence, Felix embarks on a journey-not to chase answers, but to make peace with who he was, who he became, and who he still longs to be. In each city, strangers become mirrors. In each memory, a question lingers: Can we ever truly return to who we were-or do we become someone new in the process of healing?
