Every night at exactly 1:13 AM, time stops in Greyline. No sound. No movement. No escape.

For Sora Lin - a deadbeat musician with a dead brother and a notebook full of unreleased songs - the Static Hour is a gift. A space to breathe. To record. To control something when nothing else in life makes sense.

But then she sees someone mouthing her lyrics.
Someone who shouldn't know them.
Someone who looks... exactly like her.

As the city unravels under serial murders, glitched timelines, and ghosts that don't know they're ghosts, Sora is forced to confront the unthinkable:
What if she's the anomaly?
What if the Static was never meant for her?
And what if the only person who can stop it... is her?

Robin Greyson's personal essay exposes a secret government plot with corporate and magical ties. This retelling of his own past takes place during his childhood, when he is abducted and taken to Soma, a tropical island shrouded in mystery. To the rest of Vafrian society, Soma is a big, open secret. Everyone is aware that the government controls every aspect of the island. Not many are allowed to go in or come out. Nobody questions it; that's just how things have been for the past century. No civilians know about the eldritch disasters taking place on Soma, or what creatures might be lurking all over it. All Robin and his friend Marina know, however, is that they will both meet their parents for the first time on Soma. Their shared wish comes true, but it doesn't last. The kids are separated from their parents during a cataclysmic storm. Robin and Marina wake up surrounded by strangers in a building just underneath the island's surface. Among them are three other kids and one adult. They are forced to participate in a series of anticlimactic puzzle games, of which there can only be one winner. They make a deal with the oldest player, Chuck, who promises to make contact with a friend from the surface once he escapes. If Chuck doesn't keep his word, Robin, Marina, and their new allies will be sent to Purgatory---a labyrinth teeming with zombie-like creatures. *** a/n: this is book 1 of the Tomorrow's Message series. 1.

A teen ghosthunter must defeat the alluring demon Black Prince in order to save her haunted city. *** The Great Haunting was just a historical plague. The alluring demon Black Prince wasn't real.

Armed with science, Binara is confident that she's a better ghosthunter than the city's shadowy ghostbusting agency. When history repeats itself with increasing incidents of missing girls and hauntings, Binara blames the demon prince for the disappearance of her sister. It's time to fight back before darkness takes over her home.

Five years ago, Orm and Lingling loved each other in secret, but life tore them apart. Orm stayed in Bangkok, trying to be the perfect daughter, med student, and fiancée-while Lingling rebuilt her life overseas, becoming a mother in her own terms. Now, fate pulls them back into each other's orbit. A chance encounter reignites all the feelings they tried to forget. Old wounds open, old sparks fly, and neither of them can deny what they still want. But with families, promises, and a child between them, nothing is simple. Sometimes the hardest thing is choosing your own happiness-especially when your heart never moved on.
