Waking Nightmare

He thought the war was over.

He thought the monsters were gone.

He was wrong.

Haunted by trauma and drowning in guilt, a Marine-turned-welder tries to rebuild a quiet life on the misty Washington coast. But every time he closes his eyes, the same nightmare waits: a creature of pitch-black skin and eyeless malice-always watching, always reaching.

As the line between dreams and reality begins to blur, he discovers he's not alone. Others have seen the same thing. And one ancient book might hold the key to the truth... or open the door to something far worse.

Now, hunted in sleep and unraveling by day, he must confront the horrors of his past-and the shadow stalking his every step-before it devours him from the inside out.

A raw, immersive descent into PTSD, guilt, and supernatural terror, Waking Nightmare is a debut that cuts deep and lingers long after the final page.
