Indie Next

Vigil
Hardcover / New
Set during moments of quiet crisis, the story centers on waiting, witnessing, and the weight of responsibility. Sharp observation and dark humor illuminate how ordinary people navigate conscience, power, and the pull toward inaction. As uncertainty lingers, small decisions and fleeting moments expose human frailty and reveal how character is shaped when the choice to act or remain silent comes into focus.
