**Premise:**
Thea Quincy arrives in Harrow’s Breach to find a town living under a quiet pall of fear. Her research uncovers a pattern: people who threaten the town’s ‘peace’ vanish. She suspects Orrin Merrick, the town’s enigmatic mason, who seems to know more than he lets on. The truth is, Orrin is a magical guardian, and the chimneys he builds are wards that seal a malevolent entity within the town’s borders. The entity is growing stronger, causing the magical containment to fail and disappearing residents. As a storm cuts off the town, Thea’s accidental discovery of the chimneys’ power makes her the entity’s next target. Orrin is forced to protect her, revealing his secret and pulling her into his dangerous world. Their clashing personalities ignite an intense connection as they race to repair the magical wards before the entity breaks free and devours them all.
