A story not yet lived... until it's read.

When sixteen-year-old Alex Miro discovers a hidden staircase beneath the ruins of an old town hall, he stumbles upon a secret no one was meant to discover—an ancient, endless library, containing books yet to be written for those yet to be born. Every book has a soul. Every line holds a destiny. And if spoken aloud... the future changes.

Curious and reckless, Alex reads a single sentence from a strange book—setting off a quiet wave that reshapes life in the real world.

But he finds something impossible: his own book.
And within it, a destiny he can't accept.

Now reality is beginning to distort. People forget. Time is rewriting. And something—or someone—is responding.

With the help of Imrie, a girl whose existence may not be beyond the page, Alex must confront a terrifying truth: if he doesn't find a way to reclaim his story... he may become a mere footnote.
