Opposite Shifts

You share an apartment. You share a fridge. You've never met.

Lake Dahl works the grueling night shift in an intensive care unit. Exhausted and running on empty, she signs a lease for a shared apartment with a day-shift travel nurse, Sloane. Their opposing schedules mean they never cross paths, communicating entirely through friendly, warm Post-it notes left on the refrigerator door. It's the perfect, quiet arrangement.

Until Lake notices the small things. A drawer left open a fraction of an inch. A toothbrush moved. A prescription bottle turned to reveal the label.

Someone is entering Lake's bedroom while she works. Someone is reading her private journal—the exact journal where Lake documented her agonizing doubt over a fatal medication error that killed a patient three months ago.

As the cheerful notes on the fridge continue to appear, Lake's paranoia spirals. She must uncover who her roommate really is before the secrets in her journal are weaponized against her. But the truth waiting in the room across the hall is far more terrifying, and far more calculated, than a simple medical mistake.
