LYNN'S FREQUENCY
Seventeen-year-old Lynn believes she is perfectly ordinary, desperate to maintain the comforting monotony of her life—school, her parents' predictable routines, the familiar smell of bacon and coffee. But every night, she is tormented by vicious, otherworldly nightmares. She doesn't just see these horrors; she feels them. The raw, primal fear of the shadows that twist in a cold, alien space is a palpable tide washing over her, and her own hands feel electric, powerful, and strangely connected to the terror.
These are not dreams. They are the first tendrils of the Hollowing, a malevolent, ancient entity that has fractured into our reality. It is a living storm of consumed agony and hungry despair that feeds on human terror. To cultivate the fear it needs to survive, it broadcasts nightmares into the world, seeking not just victims, but a powerful conduit to amplify its signal.
Lynn is that conduit. Unbeknownst to her, she is a Receiver, a psychic empath uniquely attuned to the frequencies of emotion. The Hollowing has chosen her to be its unwitting instrument, using her abilities to shape its nightmares into reality and unleash panic upon her town. As the line between her waking life and dreaming world blurs, she begins to witness flashes of coming disasters—a car crash, a school fire, a sinking ferry—moments before they happen, each event saturated with the
Caught between the oppressive normality her mother fiercely guards and the terrifying truth a mysterious stranger reveals, Lynn must embark on a dangerous journey of self-discovery. This stranger, part of a secret network of individuals who sense the world's deeper currents, reveals the horrifying truth: the Hollowing is real, it is feeding, and she is the key to stopping it. To defeat it, she cannot shut her abilities down; she must learn to control them, to weaponize the very empathy that makes her vulnerable.
Lynn must race against time to master her burgeoning power and interpret the cryptic warnings in her visions. But the Hollowing is not her only enemy. Its influence spreads, twisting ordinary people into vessels of paranoia and violence. To save her family and her world, this "normal girl" must embrace the extraordinary power within her, confront the source of the fear that haunts her dreams, and face a devastating choice: sever her connection to the Hollowing entirely, or channel its own horrific energy back against it in a battle that could cost her her humanity.
