It's 2020. The owner of a popular bar has decided to sell it. The main character, who is also a real estate agent, decides to buy the bar to help his friend and he wanted to own a bar. There might be another reason besides losing money during the pandemic that made the owner quick to sell. It seems that there are some some spirits that have attached themselves to the bar, and not all of them are friendly.
The main character, who is also the narrator of the story, is learning that he is an empath and he is still unsure of his own abilities. His beautiful friend, with whom he sometimes blurs the lines of friendship, promises to protect him. Neither of them may be fully prepared for the fight and it may change their lives forever.
