In Nashville, 2027, names vanish, replaced by a single word: Hollow. Crowds chant it, their eyes empty, their identities stolen by an ancient hunger rising from a derelict theater. Jack Carter, a homeless guitarist haunted by the fire that killed his family, clings to his name, his photographic memory a shield against the Hollow’s call. As the city falls, Jack follows glowing graffiti to the Rialto Theater, where a god of lost names demands his soul to become whole. With Lena, a mother fighting for her son’s name, Jack faces a love that devours identity itself.
