Caleb Dean Rivers

In worlds where memory is rewritten, the dead refuse to rest, and truth wears many faces, three lives collide with secrets meant to stay buried.

In the first tale, a man awakens in a city where surveillance breathes down his neck and even his name feels like a borrowed shell. As he unravels a reality designed to erase him, he must face the terrifying possibility that everything he remembers—and everything he is—might be fabricated.

In the second, a grieving apprentice joins a seamstress of sorrow whose threadwork calls the dead back for one last reckoning. But the spirits that return aren’t always looking for peace, and every stitch comes at a price. As the past stitches itself into the present, the cost of truth may be more than a soul can bear.

And in the third, a man enters a retreat built for harmony—but nothing is as it seems. The walls repeat his thoughts. The guests follow a hidden script. And the woman beside him feels like someone he’s already lost before. In this labyrinth of control, escaping may mean becoming the very thing he fears.

When reality fractures and identity is fluid, what remains of the truth? And when memory lies, how do you know who you really are?
