Eliza Monroe has always been able to see the truth in people's eyes, a gift she's both hated and hidden for as long as she can remember. As a child, she would watch people's lives unravel before her, glimpsing their deepest secrets in flashes-half-buried memories, unresolved regrets, and dark desires. But what she didn't know then was that her gift was far more dangerous than just a way to peer into the hearts of others. It was a curse. Now, at twenty-seven, Eliza has learned to shut the world out, working as a freelance investigator in a small, sleepy town in New England. She prefers the quiet, the anonymity of helping people from a distance, staying far away from the intensity of human connection. But everything changes when she's called to the scene of a brutal, unsolved murder-a fire that claimed the life of a local businessman, leaving nothing but charred remains. What's left behind is different. The fire didn't just burn- it marked. The man's skin is singed in a way that shouldn't be possible, as though something inhuman had left a permanent, smoldering imprint. As Eliza delves deeper into the investigation, the case begins to spiral out of control. She uncovers a hidden world of supernatural forces tied to the man's life-and his death. The clues lead her to a series of mysterious, similar deaths stretching back decades, each one linked by the same fiery signature, as though an unholy entity has been systematically burning away the souls of its victims. As she digs further, Eliza's gift grows stronger, pushing her deeper into a world of tormenting visions and terrifying hallucinations. Her ability to see the truth is becoming harder to control, and she begins to sense that something ancient and malevolent is watching her, waiting for her to unravel its dark secret. But the more she learns, the more she realizes that her connection to these murders is not accidental. She's being hunted. The entity that marks its victims with fire is now turning its gaze on her, trying to make her one of its own. Eliza must confront the terrifying truth: she is not just a passive observer in this world-she is part of it. And unless she can uncover the origins of the creature that's hunting her, the very thing that makes her "different" may soon be what gets her burned alive.
