A World Apart

There are places in San Francisco where people disappear…and no one notices.

Psychic medium Lena Alan lives with one foot in the Demimonde, the shadow side of the city where the dead linger and the past refuses to stay buried. Called to help restless spirits cross the Veil, her work is usually quiet. But when the ghost of someone familiar vanishes before she can save them, Lena realizes something is deeply wrong.

Her search for answers puts her on a collision course with Jesper MacMillian, a private investigator bound to an inheritance of power, obligation, and history he has spent his life trying to escape. Together, they uncover a pattern of violence against the city's most vulnerable residents.

Something dark is moving through San Francisco's forgotten neighborhoods, feeding on secrecy, erasure, and the thin boundary between the living and the dead. When the truth finally emerges, both Lena and MacMillian will be forced onto a path neither can walk alone.

A WORLD APART is a literary urban fantasy about haunted cities, magic with consequences, and the cost of seeing what lives in the dark.
