The Amber Geometry (The Resident Archive, #1)

"The house doesn‘t want a landlord. It wants a Resident Soul." Maya is at the pinnacle of her career. A British-born architect of global renown, she has spent five years refining the Amber Villa-a brutalist masterpiece of laterite stone and glass perched on a remote, misty ridge in Mangalore. It is her sanctuary. Her fortress of elite solitude. But the geometry is shifting. It begins with a third place setting on a dinner table meant for two. Then, a dampness that defies engineering-a rhythmic, emerald pulse vibrating through the walls. As Maya uses her sharpest strategies and high-tech surveillance to reclaim her home, she realizes a horrifying truth: She didn‘t just build a house. She built a predator. In a world where your own reflection can betray you and the very floorboards remember your name, Maya must uncover the secret of the Resident Archive before the calcification is complete. From the mind of Naomi Amberwoods comes a sophisticated, "Cozy Horror" thriller that asks the ultimate question: In a house ed for a lifetime of solitude, who-or what-is really living in the walls?
