Tahira, who has just lost her teaching job, steps outside expecting life to return to normal after the government-imposed lockdown. Instead, she discovers a world that is clearly not 2020. Strange laws govern the streets, towering walls seal her in, and the buildings feel older... as if the world itself has shifted into something both real and impossible.
She doesn't belong there, and she has no idea why. Avery, a petty thief who grew up in those streets, is drawn to her the moment he finds her in an alley. Nowhere feels safe for Tahira, and she doesn't understand where she is, how she got there, or how to survive it... except for one thing-Avery is real, and somehow, he is the only thing that makes sense.
But the towers hide more than just answers. Every time she tries to escape, she finds herself back where she started, as if time itself is folding in on her. What begins as confusion quickly darkens, and the deeper they search, the clearer it becomes that this is more than a series of strange coincidences.
It's a loop.
And breaking it may cost more than either of them is willing to lose.
