The Documentation
Release: November 2025
When the dead leave messages, someone must listen. She was never supposed to be a witness. She was designed to be the proof. FBI Agent Sarah Holt has investigated homicides for twenty years... ​FBI Agent Sarah Holt has investigated homicides for twenty years. She knows how to read crime scenes, predict patterns, follow evidence. But nothing prepared her for the body discovered at dawn in Death Valley—a young woman carved with intricate spirals, positioned with mathematical precision, and left with a single Polaroid photograph. ​The photo, dated 1981, shows another victim. Same spirals. Same precision. Same killer—forty years later. The investigation leads Sarah from the Mojave Desert to the glacial coasts of Alaska, where she uncovers a conspiracy spanning generations. Indigenous women have been disappearing for decades—systematic erasure tied to land acquisitions, government programs, and a family legacy built on violence. At the center of it all is Hope, a traumatized child who speaks with the voices of 237 murdered women. She knows things no child should know. She remembers deaths she never witnessed. And she carries evidence that could expose a network four decades in the making. But some patterns span lifetimes. Some documentation can't be destroyed. And some truths demand to be witnessed—no matter the cost. ​ THE DOCUMENTATION is a searing psychological thriller that confronts the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis through an FBI investigation that becomes impossible to walk away from. For readers of True Detective Season 1, Scandinavian noir, and thrillers where every victim matters. Content Warning: This novel addresses violence against women, child trauma, and institutional corruption with psychological realism and unflinching honesty.

At the Well of Urd
The gods are parasites. The cosmos is dying. And the cure might be worse than the disease. For ten thousand years, the Norns—Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld—have woven reality from their dwelling beside the Well of Urd. They've edited out chaos, removed unwanted possibilities, and maintained the pattern that keeps existence from dissolving into the primordial void. They never questioned the cost. When Urd tastes copper in the sacred well—the unmistakable flavor of theft—she discovers a horrifying truth: the gods have been unconsciously draining life from every realm they rule. Odin's wisdom, Thor's strength, Frigg's foresight—all of it stolen from the very beings they claim to protect. But the erased possibilities haven't vanished. They've gained consciousness. Led by the first Urd—the sister edited from existence for opposing tyranny—these Forgotten beings return through tears in reality, bringing with them a terrible revelation: the system designed to prevent chaos has become the source of suffering. And through the wounds they create, Ginnungagap stirs—the primordial void that hungers to reclaim all creation. As probability storms ravage the Nine Realms and the Well of Urd cracks, three sisters face an impossible choice: Maintain control and watch reality slowly bleed to death. Or release their grip and risk absolute dissolution. But transformation has already begun. Thor learns to support moments rather than command them. Frigg reveals she's carried the truth for millennia. Loki discovers that honesty might be his greatest trick. And in the spaces between order and chaos, consciousness itself awakens to a third option—one that requires everyone to choose what they'll become. "At the Well of Urd" isn't about gods and heroes. It's about the moment consciousness recognizes its own cage. This is philosophical fiction dressed in Norse mythology, using ancient stories to explore modern questions: What happens when those in power discover they're the problem? How do systems designed to protect become structures that oppress? Can transformation happen without destruction? And in the end, only one question matters—the question the book asks directly of you: What will you become? Perfect for readers who: Question the systems that shape our world See mythology as psychology, not just stories Want fiction that transforms, not just entertains Are ready to be asked what they'll choose
