Publisher's Synopsis
Acclaimed indie filmmaker Theo Merrick has always seen the world through a lens-sharpening the edges of reality, cutting away what doesn't belong. But when strange figures begin to appear in the thirteenth frame of his latest footage-then in the quiet corners of his own life-his careful world fractures.
Each frame reveals more than the last: a presence that shouldn't exist, memories he's fought to bury, and a past that refuses to stay cut. As Theo's obsession with the footage deepens, so does his isolation. The woman he trusts most begins to doubt him, while the camera seems to turn against its creator.
Reality and reflection blur as Theo is drawn into a chilling ritual-one that forces him to confront not only what he filmed, but what he erased. Every edit holds a consequence. Every frame watches back.
In a world where memory can be manipulated and guilt lives between the cuts, how do you know what's real?
And when the final frame rolls, will Theo be watching... or will he be watched?
A tense, psychological tale of obsession, denial, and the haunting price of forgetting.
