The Fallbrook Chronicles: The Awakening
About this ebook
In the quiet town of Fallbrook, California, five children vanish without a trace—and seven military personnel disappear under equally mysterious circumstances. For sixteen-year-old Zoe Bailey, the search for answers begins when her father unearths a strange artifact buried in their backyard. It isn’t just ancient—it’s alive. And it has plans for her.
As Zoe’s powers awaken, she’s plagued by dreams that feel more like memories, of visions of Fallbrook's past, and strange anomalies begin to appear—including a glitch in her mom’s Pokémon Go app that reveals things no one else can see. With her family now caught in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, Zoe must navigate fractured timelines, buried secrets, and forces that will stop at nothing to control what she’s discovered.
As time fractures and reality splinters, Zoe must unravel the past to save Fallbrook—and the world beyond—from collapse.
A gripping blend of sci-fi, mystery, and supernatural suspense, The Fallbrook Chronicles: The Awakening is the first book in a thrilling new trilogy, perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, Diana Gabaldon, Stranger Things, and Stephen King’s 11/22/63.
