Shadows in the Static

A single phone call changes everything. At 2:14 a.m., Alex answers a late-night ring only to hear a distorted voice whisper: "They're watching you." What begins as a chilling prank spirals into a nightmare of paranoia and fear. Strange shadows appear where they shouldn't, coworkers act strangely distant, and a mysterious flip phone begins delivering cryptic warnings. When an unmarked envelope arrives with a flash drive containing recordings of Alex's life—footage taken without their knowledge—the line between safety and danger vanishes. Someone knows Alex's every move. Someone knows Alex's secrets. And as the calls grow clearer and the messages darker, Alex realizes this is not just surveillance… it's a countdown. Every chapter pulls the reader deeper into a world where trust is impossible, the truth is hidden in the static, and one question remains: when the clock hits zero, what happens next?
