In the shadows of a fading oil empire, where the land groans under years of unchecked extraction, a veterinarian named Janyl begins to notice strange afflictions among the livestock. Her quiet investigation into the anomalies leads her closer to the gates of a state-run refinery—and into a web of silence, resistance, and unseen forces.
As the line between natural decay and something more otherworldly begins to blur, Janyl must navigate a haunting landscape of power, secrecy, and maternal instinct. With pressure mounting from all sides and a mysterious figure offering a perilous choice, the fate of more than just her town hangs in the balance.
