A Novella of Bureaucratic Dread and Psychological Horror
Some debts cannot be paid in cash. Some files can never be closed.
Erick Wight is a fixer—a master of bureaucratic erasure who unwinds the state’s cases against the city’s most dangerous players. To Erick, every atrocity is merely an administrative anomaly waiting to be undone. He doesn't offer redemption; he offers the "undo."
But when he is summoned into the shifting, fog-shrouded corridors of the Shadow Neighborhood, the rules of the system change entirely.
Guided by the iron-bound ledger of The Proctor, Erick must process three high-risk clients through a gauntlet of quiet, visceral dread—each facing a localized reckoning built from their own corrupt pasts.
In the Shadow Neighborhood, reality is not fixed. The environment itself is a manifestation of administrative purgatory. As the walls bleed ink and floorboards yield to liquid paper, Erick discovers a terrifying truth:
In a purgatory that feeds on guilt, every filing error must be accounted for—and the ledger is far from finished with him.
Insantium is a suffocating journey into a surreal, non-Euclidean nightmare. Perfect for readers who like their horror heavy, atmospheric, and deeply psychological.
