"A haunted house story where the house doesn't just scare you-it writes you. A failed novelist discovers a manuscript in his own handwriting that predicts his future, and a town where stories are alive, hungry, and waiting to consume him. "The house waited for him.
When failed novelist William Varn arrives in Cartersville, he expects cheap rent and quiet nights. Instead, he finds a Victorian mansion that reads him like an open book-and an unfinished manuscript written in his own hand that knows more about his future than he does.
Soon, William is drawn into a web of whispers, haunted pages, and a town built on the hunger of stories. At the library, Mara Quinn warns him of the price writers always pay. At the museum, Dr. Hail promises him brilliance beyond imagination. And beneath it all, the Story Field pulses, feeding on every dream, every sentence, every soul.
The stories want him. The Field needs him. The question is: will William escape with his life-or burn forever as part of the narrative?
Fans of House of Leaves, The Silent Patient, and The Haunting of Hill House will be captivated by this tale of gothic horror, literary obsession, and the thin line between writer and written. William Varn, a failed novelist drowning in rejection, retreats to the decaying town of Cartersville, Georgia, hoping to rediscover his voice. What he finds instead is a Victorian house that knows him-its walls whispering fragments of his own unwritten stories, its attic hiding a manuscript in his handwriting that predicts his future.
As William searches for answers, he encounters Mara Quinn, the enigmatic librarian whose green eyes hold centuries of sorrow, and Dr. Victor Hail, the charismatic museum director, tempts him with promises of literary immortality. Both lead him toward the Story Field, a vast and ancient network beneath Cartersville that feeds on creativity itself.
William must decide whether to resist the Field's seductive power or surrender to it, knowing that the cost of becoming the writer he always dreamed of being may be nothing less than his soul.
A gothic literary horror of haunted houses, cursed manuscripts, and the terrible hunger of stories themselves, The Convergence asks: What would you sacrifice to write a story that lasts forever?
