In the bustling city of Elmridge, where shadows stretch longer than they should and whispers echo in places they shouldn't, 17-year-old Alec Rowen discovers a strange book buried beneath his grandmother's attic. The book speaks of "Veilwalkers," beings who can step between the physical world and an unseen realm of forgotten magic and truth.
Across the city, Lyra Kincaid, a gifted but guarded girl with a haunted past, begins experiencing visions-flashes of places she's never been and people she's never met, including Alec.
As fate intertwines their paths, they unravel a centuries-old mystery involving a secret society, a dying magical realm known as The Veil, and an ancient betrayal that could destroy both worlds.
Together, Alec and Lyra must navigate shifting allegiances, dark secrets, and their own growing bond-all while being hunted by those who would rather see them silenced.
