“Shut up, you lowly piece of trash! How dare you try to speak! Yes, the pregnancy isn’t yours, but there’s nothing you can do, so suck it up like the jobless loser you are!” These were the words Kai’s wife, Scarlett said to him when he found out her pregnancy wasn’t his. Following a whirlwind courtship during which Kai was fooled into believing Scarlett loved him, they got married, and that was the start of his troubles. Compounded with the fact that he had to claim another man’s baby as his or be kicked out of the house, his in-laws found every excuse to belittle and abuse him. After he found Scarlett and her lover getting intimate on the bed they shared and furiously spoke up, he was given the beating of his life by Scarlett and her lover and chased out of the house. He returned a billion times richer, to their shock, and swore he would make them pay.

Black Hollow is a town built on secrets, where the past lingers like smoke and whispers of the dead weave through the wind. When Evelyn Drake, a 32-year-old trauma psychologist, inherits her estranged grandmother's abandoned estate, she plans to sell it and never look back. But the house, once ravaged by an unexplained fire, holds a history as twisted as the town itself. Evelyn soon discovers that her grandmother, Vivienne Hale, was a Soul Keeper, a guardian of spirits trapped between life and death. Her return stirs something ancient and angry. The spirits of Black Hollow awaken, their vengeance unresolved. When burned corpses begin appearing, each victim bearing the same eerie mark, Evelyn realizes she’s entangled in a crime that refuses to stay buried. Teaming up with Detective Ethan Calloway, a hardened cop haunted by his own past, Evelyn must uncover a decades-old conspiracy, a forgotten fire, and the true purpose of the Soul Keeper’s legacy. But not every ghost seeks peace. Some crave revenge. And in the ashes of the past, a killer still walks among the living.
