Chapter 13 - Shadows of the Gate

Sometimes the hardest thing to carry through your own front door is what you learned while you were away.

Evening settles over a home that feels like everything worth protecting — laughter in the yard, warmth at the table, the ordinary grace of a family in motion. But comfort has a way of sharpening the edges of what doesn't belong, and some knowledge sits heavier the closer you hold the people it might touch.

Set in D.W. Sheppard’s vast interconnected world where protective Gates hold back deadly monsters and treacherous flora, where safety is never guaranteed.
