Elias Vance has always been different. Born with a rare form of synesthesia, he can taste lies and hear the pure chime of truth. For years, it was just an oddity... until the whispers began. Whispers from the library shelves. Whispers from his dreams. Whispers that lead him to an impossible journal - one that writes his life before it happens. When the mysterious Lyra steps out of the shadows, Elias is pulled into a centuries-old war between secret societies fighting over the very fabric of time. But the deeper he reads, the more the journal reveals a terrifying truth: he's lived this before. Many times. And every time... he's failed. Now, the cycle is breaking. The lies are louder. The truths are sharper. And the fate of reality rests on whether Elias can decode his past before time runs out - or be trapped forever in a loop that always ends in betrayal. Perfect for fans of dark academia, supernatural mystery, and time-bending thrillers.
