Cora has spent two years building a quiet life in Velmoor, a fog-covered city perched on the edge of a dark sea. No noise. No past. No questions. Just the kind of careful, invisible existence that feels almost like peace. Then she reaches into her bag one morning and pulls out a bloodstained scarf. Her own. Her neighbor Daniel is dead. The police are at his door. And Cora has no memory of the three hours that could either save her — or destroy her completely. With the evidence mounting against her and an arrest closing in, Cora does the only thing she can — she investigates herself. She retraces her steps, confronts the gaps in her memory, and begins to unravel a web of secrets she never knew existed. Secrets about Daniel. Secrets about Velmoor. And secrets about her own past that someone has been watching very closely. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that the person guiding her search may not be leading her toward the truth. They may be leading her away from it.
