Premise:
Archivist Corin Hawthorne accepts a peculiar inheritance: cataloging her great-uncle’s grotesque taxidermy collection on the remote, storm-lashed Gannet’s Rock. The task is meant to be her scholarly triumph, but when a tempest traps her on the island with the imposing and silent caretaker, Silas Grange, isolation begins to prey on her.
Her descent into paranoia accelerates after she uncovers her great-uncle’s journals—diaries that reveal him not as an eccentric artist, but a prolific murderer who saw his victims as canvases. Every glance from Silas now feels like a threat, every shadow a predator. As Corin fights for her sanity and her life, she must decide if Silas is a killer continuing her uncle’s work, or if the true monster is the blood that runs in her own veins.
