The Veil
The boundary between the living world and what waits beyond it.
A modern banshee fantasy
The Echo of the Veil
Some warnings arrive as whispers. Some tear through the walls. When the Veil thins, the dead are not the only ones trying to be heard.
About the Book
The scream is not a curse. It is a warning.
A dark fantasy for readers who love liminal spaces, Irish mythology reimagined, and protagonists who must choose between silence and power.
The Premise
In a city where the Veil between worlds is thin, some are born to hear what others cannot. When the screams begin, it is not just the dead who take notice.
Modern Banshees
Banshees are framed as messengers and threshold-keepers, not monsters. Their power is warning, memory, grief, and choice.
Themes
- 01 Identity and power
- 02 The seen and the unseen
