The streets shift, shadows move, and whispers creep through the night. Every time the clock ticks forward, reality resets-trapping him deeper in a loop that no one remembers. No one except them.
As Adrian unravels the horrifying truth, he learns that some secrets are meant to stay buried. Because in The Unmarked Hour...
Not everyone who enters gets to leave.
