Evoking the paranoid tension of Rosemary's Baby and the unnerving atmosphere of the cult horror film Jacob's Ladder, The Cracks in the Labyrinth is a disturbing psychological thriller set in present-day Caracas, where the government has devolved into a "democratic dictatorship"-a creepy suspense novel meant to challenge your deeper, subconscious fears of losing control. It consumed the sanity of an entire country... And it was not from this world. It couldn't have been. Whatever caused the incident known as "The Red Christmas" drove Venezuela into madness. Even ten years since it happened, none of the survivors of that night dare to attempt to make sense of it all, including Adam. Living ostracized to hide from the brutal way of life in Caracas, he's working tirelessly as an online writer to help his brother and sister flee the country. Now, as he's about to have enough money to take them to safety, he receives an email from his old girlfriend ... which is remarkable, considering she's been presumed dead for years. Adam tries to think nothing of the email or the broken video file attached to it. He convinces himself that it has to be a computer virus of some kind until he discovers something terrifying: the video might link his sister to the worst night of his life, the night his girlfriend went missing, the night of "The Red Christmas". Then he realizes this could be a threat; his sister's life could be in danger. As he starts to investigate who sent the video, Adam begins to uncover dark truths about his neighbors and finds evidence that there might be a larger conspiracy at play. The problem is that he's starting to suffer from hellish hallucinations that make him question what is real. Soon, the only clear thing to him is that someone doesn't want him to dig up the past. Will Adam be able to stay sane long enough to find out what really happened the night of "The Red Christmas"? Will he succeed in helping his family escape the country?

They trained him to be a weapon. They never expected him to think for himself. Sam has spent his entire life obeying. Conditioned to kill, trained to trust no one, he has followed his uncle's commands without hesitation. Survival demanded it. But when a ghost from his past resurfaces, the foundation of his world begins to crack. His life was governed by one unbreakable rule: "Trust no one. Be alert. Show NO mercy to the guilty." But what happens when guilt is no longer black and white? When the people who shaped him turn out to be the very ones who have been manipulating him all along? Loyalties blur. Truths unravel. And betrayal lurks in the shadows, waiting to strike. Betrayal demands blood. But whose? It's supposed to be unforgivable. But when the ultimate betrayal comes from within, will Sam break free-or become exactly what they always intended him to be? As the walls close in and the truth unravels, Sam must decide if he will keep running from the past-or turn and face the monster they made him. Because in the end, the question is no longer whether he can survive. It's whether he was ever meant to. The line between justice and vengeance has never been thinner. And for the first time in a long time, Sam isn't sure if he's on the right side of it.
