jOvian veiL - Middle of the Mist

For as long as Brandon can remember there have been rumours of the world's rarest flower, the Middlemist red, growing on a nearby island close to his sleepy coastal town. His grandmother, Norma, has always wanted to see it in full bloom but has never made a point of crossing it off her bucket list.
Brandon seizes the opportunity to fulfill one of her wishes and escorts her, along with his father Nick, on a fun daytrip to see if they can make some lasting memories. The trio embarks on a journey to the remote rocky outcropping on a misty day, full of hope and enthusiasm, but everything isn't as it seems on this island. The group uncovers more than they expected and are forced to fight for their survival in the middle of the mist.
'jOvian veiL' started out as multifaceted project that allowed the reader to immerse themselves in the storytelling of a Science Fiction Novella (Series) but also experience the story from the author's musical perspective (Hard Rock Album). Each chapter of the book has an associated track that corresponds to a mood, feeling or setting in the book (both written and played by the author).
'jOvian veiL' has since expanded the concept of this project to allow for a divergence from the original Novella Series, to allow the author to explore and recount more tales that may not follow the original series. 'jOvian veiL - Middle of the Mist' is the first short story (and single) that uses the same multifaceted approach but is completely separate from the series.
