P A R E I D O L I a : A Novel of the Registry
Overview
A decaying municipal archive. Two women walking overlapping hallways. A history that refuses to stay filed.
Deep within the damp sub-basements and towering stacks of a coastal municipal archive, time is beginning to slip. Records mismatch institutional memory, clocks freeze mid-tick, and documents appear bearing signatures from staff members who walked those corridors decades apart.
Following parallel investigations that slowly bleed into one another, archivist and conservator Julianna Rossi meticulously restores damaged municipal folios while hunting for the truth behind a suppressed historical fire and a missing accession parcel that holds her own personal belongings. Upstairs, clinical psychologist Dr. Clara runs behavioral sessions for a hyper-observant, silent young patient named Maya, whose quiet presence lays bare the unsettling spatial anomalies and structural ghosts haunting the annex.
As their routines dissolve into a labyrinth of shifting logs, erased identities, and impossible timelines, Julianna and Clara must determine whether the building's labyrinthine history is an administrative cover-up-or a living archive closing in around them.
A moody, atmospheric psychological mystery exploring the weight of memory, bureaucratic obsession, and the haunting persistence of the past.
