The Thief of Moments: a novel
In a world haunted by silence and suffering, Virgil Washington, once a thriving businessman, now finds himself confined to a hospital dementia ward after a devastating stroke robbed him of his voice. Amid the suffocating stillness, Virgil uncovers a chilling truth about his fellow patients and what they have lost-a revelation that compels him toward a grim decision, one that promises to end their torment once and for all.
Dr. Kester Grayson, assigned to care for Virgil's ward, grapples with the relentless horrors his patients endure. Haunted by guilt and plagued by indecision, Kester guards a secret from his own past, a secret that threatens to unravel his budding relationship and force him to question the very essence of his healing vocation.
When a series of brutal murders rocks the hospital's fragile tranquility, Kester is drawn deeper into the macabre puzzle, and he is forced to confront the demons that have long haunted him, setting in motion a chain of events that will forever alter the fates of Virgil, Kester, and another man-whose twisted soul may hold the key to unraveling the mysteries that bind them all.
In this riveting tale of suffering, secrets, and silence, the bonds of humanity are tested, and the shadows of the past loom large over an uncertain future.
