Colophon Pier

By Luna Dream

Marcus Fletcher is a meticulous municipal investigator, used to tracing fraudulent tax ledgers and corporate anomalies through Oakhaven's corrupt bureaucracy. But when a routine audit into a defunct 1891 corporate charter leads him into the subterranean vaults beneath City Hall, he uncovers a horrific clockwork reality: the city is being written in real-time by a monstrous, automated printing press-and the ink is running thick with human blood.

When his estranged brother, Julian, is dragged into the machinery and begins transforming into a literal statue of type-metal and bone, Marcus is forced to play a psychological game against the narrative itself. Trapped within a strict, unyielding 45-chapter framework governed by spectral printers and a ruthless foreman, every action Marcus takes is instantly typeset onto the bubbling vellum pages before him.

To save his brother and break the mechanical deadlock gridlocking the city, Marcus must find a way to rewrite the final signatures before the ink sets hard, the ledger closes, and they are permanently bound into the dark archive of the dead.
