Dr. Daniel has spent his career proving that consciousness is nothing more than the brain lying to itself. Astral projection. Out of body experiences. The soul. Elaborate neurological fiction. He has the papers, the tenure, and the contempt to prove it. Then he wakes up in a dead man's body. What follows will dismantle everything he knows about consciousness, identity, and the fragile boundary between what is real and what the mind manufactures to survive. Pulled into a shadow world operating at the edge of what science will admit is possible, Daniel discovers that someone has found a way to cross that boundary — and weaponize it. Now he is running out of time. Running out of body. And falling into something inside the darkness that he cannot explain and cannot leave behind. Some things cannot be proven. Some things don't need to be. How far would you go for something that might not be real?
