Lament Academy is a place for the forgotten, the troubled, the unwanted. Abby never wanted to be here, but she wasn’t given a choice. The halls are cold, the whispers never stop, and something about this place feels wrong.

Her roommate, Raven, listens to the floorboards like they might answer. The other students watch her like they know something she doesn’t. And Ethan… Ethan looks at her like he’s waiting for her to remember something she’s long forgotten.

But the longer Abby stays at Lament, the more the lines between dreams and reality blur. Shadows stretch where they shouldn’t. Time slips through her fingers. And the whispers—soft, familiar, unrelenting—keep calling her name.

Something is keeping her here.

And it won’t let her go.
