A small coastal town is unsettled by a quiet legend that drifts between moonlit waves and the rustle of pine. When a troubled zoologist returns home to catalog rare owls, she uncovers a long-buried pact linking the community’s fortunes to a mysterious, nocturnal guardian. As whispers grow into uneasy truths, residents must choose between clinging to familiar routines and embracing a fragile courage that challenges their deepest loyalties. A local teacher, a devout skeptic, and a grieving fisherman collide in a tide of memory and awe, discovering that answers may require listening to the night itself rather than shouting into it.
