Mercy & Mayhem

Mercy is a Word Walker.

Since she was a child she has possessed the ability to walk into stories and interact with the characters.

To her, classic novels aren't just stories-they're places.

Their heroes and villains are actors hitting their marks.

Their worlds are as familiar as her own. It's a gift she's spent her life hiding, and one she's never questioned.

Until the stories begin to change.

A conversation happens differently. A character makes the wrong choice. A scene she's read a hundred times unfolds in a way it never should.

And then her favorite book is blank.

As cracks spread through the worlds she loves, Mercy finds herself caught between fiction and reality, racing to uncover what's rewriting the tales before entire stories unravel.

Because if the books are changing, it isn't an accident.

Something, or someone, is changing them.
