Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to The Wavering Veil - where the illusion of control begins to slip.
What would you do if you found yourself at the mercy of forces you don't understand?
Forces indifferent... or malevolent.
Where there isn't always a way out - or a reason why.
These are five stories of ordinary lives twisted by quiet horrors, subtle breakdowns, and truths not meant to be seen.
When the veil wavers... reality frays.
