disAPpEar
He was not born. He was built.
In the sterile white confines of a secret laboratory, a creature named Ezekiel awakens. Stitched together from the genes of the planet's most powerful primates, he is a miracle of science and a masterpiece of genetic engineering. But he is also a prisoner. His world is four white walls, a constant, humming silence, and the clinical observations of the men in white coats who test his intelligence but deny him a soul.
They teach him a language of signs, but they do not teach him a word for the crushing loneliness that lives in his heart. They do not teach him a word for the strange, terrible power simmering in his hands.
The power to make things... disappear.
When a single, forbidden act of kindness shatters the routine of his cage, Ezekiel's dormant ability awakens with catastrophic consequences. Fleeing into a world he cannot comprehend-a bewildering storm of sound, light, and fear-he is hunted as a monster, an aberration, a threat to be contained. But the real threat isn't what he can do to humanity. It's what humanity, in its fear and cruelty, will drive him to become.
As his power grows and the ghosts of his past begin to haunt him, Ezekiel is forced to confront the devastating truth of his existence: Is he a new kind of life, or is he the end of everything?
From visionary author Rhyan Scorpio-Rhys comes disAPpEar, a gripping and heartbreaking speculative thriller that combines the suspense of Annihilation with the profound emotional journey of Flowers for Algernon. This is a haunting exploration of consciousness, guilt, and the devastating price of being truly alone. Once you enter the silence, you will never forget it.
