Failed marketing consultant Leo Carpenter returns to his childhood home after a cryptic postcard from his eccentric father. There, he discovers his family's bizarre legacy: they are boundary keepers, guardians of a magical Veil separating our world from a realm called the Beyond. When a wounded creature escapes through a breach, Leo must confront hungry shadows, a two-hundred-year-old family secret, and the true meaning of belonging. A heartfelt, humorous fantasy about fathers and sons, impossible choices, and the places—and people—we call home.
