Jolka Sienko is a brilliant architect with a talent for impossible buildings and a past she can’t outrun. Her name is her last remaining asset, until the day she’s summoned to the deathbed of her former mentor. His final, cryptic request forces her to accept a job from the one man she despises: Stellan Voronin, the cold, enigmatic heir whose family feud shattered her own. Stellan needs her unique genius to complete the Somnolent Spire, a museum dedicated to his late mother, built on an estate shrouded in perpetual mist and eerie silence. Bound by her mentor’s dying wish, Jolka finds herself Stellan's only lifeline as he's framed for a crime connected to the museum's construction. Their shared, tragic history is a chasm between them, each remembering the night their families collided with bitter resentment. But as a suffocating storm traps them within the Spire's half-finished halls, the estate’s chilling secrets begin to bleed through the walls. Will they uncover the truth that connects their pasts, or will the Spire entomb their secrets forever?
