Frankenstein's monster is, contrary to popular belief, extremely articulate. He is also extremely tired. Hauled out of his own novel and into one ill-fitting adaptation after another, each louder and stranger than the last, he wants a quiet life, one uninterrupted sentence, and for everyone to please read the book.

A meticulous scholar obsessed with achieving perfection through dark magic has left a trail of disappeared victims across Victorian London. As he prepares his final, most powerful ritual, a rational detective follows an impossible pattern of evidence that challenges everything he believes about reality. When their paths collide, logic confronts the supernatural in a desperate race to stop a man who has discovered that reality itself can be reshaped—at a terrible cost. A psychological dark fantasy where obsession, horror, and investigation intertwine in the shadowy streets of a city hiding ancient secrets.

Ten-year-old Elia and her older brother Nico always knew their Grandma Marn’s cottage was an exceptional place—a labyrinth of ticking clocks and whispering cupboards nestled in the roots of a mossy hill.

​But on the morning Marn dies, the house stops breathing. The kettle falls silent. Every clock locks at 6:08. The doors seal shut.
