Discover the legend of a soul who crossed the veil between life and death in search of truth, love, and redemption.
Hidden deep within the Montes mountains lies the small alpine village of Marlon — a place bound by time and shadow. Its story began centuries ago, in the harsh age of the Middle Ages, when power ruled through fear and the will of kings crushed the freedom of common folk. Among those who rose against tyranny was a young man named Felix. Their rebellion ended in fire; the village was burned to the ground, yet life endured in the mountains, carried on by those who refused to yield.
Eight hundred years later, history repeats itself — though in a far more modern guise. Timothy Hopper, a quiet boy from Marlon, never cared much for quarrels or politics. But fate intervened. Struck by lightning, he fell into a year-long coma. When he finally awoke, his world was no longer the same.
With the help of his teacher and family friend Samuel, his best friend Dorian, his beloved Lucy, and the mysterious young librarian Liza, Tim begins to rebuild his life. But tragedy soon finds him again. Lucy is lost, and as the shadows close in, Tim must confront the Organisation — a seemingly noble institution that trains gifted youths but hides a far darker purpose. Behind its smiling façade lie cruelty, control, and the quiet destruction of all who oppose it.
Determined to uncover the truth, Tim ventures into dangers beyond the living world itself. When Dorian dies, Tim makes an unthinkable choice: to cross the veil between life and death in search of his friend.
But some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.
