This Is Not A Sequel

YOU CLICKED. YOU READ. YOU’RE ALREADY IN.
A bottle of Malbec appears in Lady’s fridge. She didn’t buy it. When she drags her boyfriend into the kitchen to prove she’s not losing her mind, it’s gone. And the look on his face tells her exactly what he’s going to say.
After that, her life starts updating without her permission.
Her tablet finishes sentences she didn’t write. Slack posts under her name. Her calendar schedules FOLLOW-UP with an organizer she’s never met. The reminders she uses to stay sober rewrite themselves while she watches.
Check. Verify. Confirm.
Because control has always been a substitute for comfort. And something on the other side of the screen knows exactly which lever to pull.
It doesn’t need her to relapse. It needs her to complete the next step.
Is she being haunted. Or trained?
From the author of THIS BOOK MAY KILL YOU and PRIMACY comes a meta-horror novella about relapse as a doorway and the special hell of not trusting your own memory.

I don’t write stories about good people surviving bad things. I write about systems that eat people quietly, the horror that shows up as a notification, a form letter, a wellness check that goes sideways. If that’s the kind of story that follows you around after you close the tab, you’re already the right reader.
