Hands of Fate

When clocks across Daybridge begin whispering in perfect synchronization, Detective Alice Chen dismisses it as an odd coincidence-until she starts experiencing visions of events that haven't happened yet. As temporal anomalies ripple through the city, Alice reluctantly teams up with Tobias Merrick, a master watchmaker with a family legacy tied to a mysterious clocktower, Madame Winters, an elderly witch with ancient knowledge, and her partner Ethan Reeves, whose werewolf transitions have become dangerously unpredictable. Together, they discover a cosmic alignment has fractured time itself, and an artifact called the Pendulum of Aeon is the key to either healing or destroying their reality.With the enigmatic Chronos Society working to exploit the fracture and a vampire council deploying advanced technology to harness temporal energy, Alice and her allies race against a literally ticking clock. As boundaries between past and present blur and the fracture widens, Alice must embrace her newfound temporal sensitivity to prevent complete temporal collapse. But in a city where time is unraveling, every second counts and some rifts, once opened, may never truly close.
