Tide Door

Mina Vale came to Saorun to audit a nonfatal evacuation drill anomaly. The port town's public maps say one thing. The paper records say another. At low water, both point toward Old Basin Sector C, where a sealed municipal tide-control door waits below the storm line.As the weather closes in, Mina discovers that the corrupted route system does more than misdirect crowds. It can rewrite who is documented as having survived, and her missing sister's name is already inside the record.To keep the next evacuation from becoming evidence for a disaster that has not happened yet, Mina has to trust handwritten logs, damaged gauges, and people the system is trying to erase.The Tide Door is an original adult coastal horror thriller about institutional trust, storm water, and the terror of being routed by records that need you to disappear.
