The Fallen Flock

In the decaying city of Veridian, where demons masquerade as civic leaders and corruption festers in every shadowed alley, Father Gregorio fights to save his fractured parish from a sea of depravity. When he uncovers an ancient text promising a ritual to purge the demonic taint with a flood of consecrated water, Gregorio gathers a desperate band of followers-Elias, a stonemason; Seraphina, a streetwise orphan; Mateo, a cynical apothecary; and Anya, a scarred warrior-to venture into the city's labyrinthine aqueducts. But the path to salvation is fraught with horror: grotesque creatures, arcane traps, and a betrayal that shatters their fragile trust. As Gregorio confronts the demons within the city and within himself, the ritual unleashes a cleansing wave-at a devastating cost. In the aftermath, Veridian begins a fragile rebirth, but lingering mysteries hint at a darkness yet to come. The Fallen Flock is a chilling tale of faith, sacrifice, and the battle for redemption in a world where evil wears a human face. Perfect for fans of Stephen King's haunting, character-driven horror.
