The curse of Atreus didn't die. It just changed its name.
Thirteen-year-old Leo Pearson thought his biggest problems were bullies and awkward classroom assignments—until the whispers started. Until mirrors stopped behaving. Until bloodlines began rewriting themselves in his sleep.
In the quiet town of Dunnville, Ontario, something ancient has awakened beneath the surface. A god long buried in myth now seeks a new vessel, and Leo's family legacy—twisted, tragic, and marked by sacrifice—has made him the perfect candidate.
As reality fractures, Leo must uncover the truth behind the curse that has haunted his blood for generations. With the help of Erin, a girl who may be more fury than friend, and his older brother Jaeon, who begins to change in terrifying ways, Leo must decide whether to break the cycle... or become its next chapter.
But the deeper he digs, the louder the whisper becomes.
Power wants a name.
The story wants an ending.
And the river is ready to take both.
