Book cover : Credit : Evelyn Amelia The world has always had twenty-five hours. We just weren't meant to see the last one. At midnight, when the living believe the day is over, another hour begins - a golden hour where the dead wake, walk, and live again. For sixty stolen minutes, graves stand empty, coffins open, and the frozen world becomes their stage. Sarah swears her husband - buried for almost a year - is chopping wood outside her window. Daniel's camera captures strangers no one else remembers. And in the morgue, Dr. Castillo hears her corpses whisper: Almost time. But the dead are not alone in their hidden hour. Wardens patrol the golden streets, enforcing rules older than death itself. Touch the living, and they vanish. Break the cycle, and the Wardens come. Now a circle of fanatics believes they've uncovered the secret of the twenty-fifth hour. They're desperate to step inside it. To them it's proof of the afterlife. To the dead, it's just life. To the Wardens... it's a breach that cannot be forgiven. When midnight strikes, the truth will be revealed. The dead are not haunting us. We are haunting them.
