Description

Marc is a charismatic radio host whose ordinary broadcast day turns deadly when a shadowy gunman bursts into the studio, shattering glass and sending him spiraling into a realm beyond time. He awakens amid swirling mists, surrounded by a bizarre High Council—giant, disembodied heads that embody concepts like Eternity and Life—who argue over his fate as if he were a pawn in a cosmic game. Their cryptic deliberations hint at forces far larger than any newsroom, and Marc’s sudden plunge into this liminal space sets the stage for a clash between mortal danger and otherworldly intrigue.

Back on Earth, Marc’s entanglement with a covert government project to weaponize advertising draws the attention of rival subversives and an alien agenda that seeks to infiltrate the nation’s consumer messages. As the stakes rise, the story blends classic mid‑century sci‑fi suspense with a dash of dark humor, inviting listeners to follow a fast‑moving mystery where media, mind control, and metaphysical councils intersect.
