The Cycle Fractures

Book 1 of The Cycle Fractures Trilogy. A prequel is also available.

For fans of The Mist, Dark Matter, and The Last of Us.

Michael Hart is a man hollowed out by grief. Two years after losing his wife, Sarah, he survives on the rigid armor of routine-same tea, same bus stop, same silence. But during a high‑voltage repair at a substation, the routine breaks. 33,000 volts surge through him, and instead of dying, Michael slips.

He wakes up in a world that has developed seams. He can see the invisible machinery of death: ultraviolet filaments drifting through hospital corridors, spectral anomalies stalking the edges of reality.

As a predatory "Anomaly" begins to hunt him through the cracks in the world, Michael faces an impossible choice:
Allow the cycle to collapse, or become the very thing that manages the end of all things.
