The Fate of Felix Brand

Felix Brand awakens in a room he knows intimately—its elegant furnishings and his own carefully chosen décor surround him—but a vivid, disorienting vision lingers, as if a dream could be touched. The sensation is so powerful that he feels his very consciousness tugged between the tangible world and the uncanny scene that still pulses behind his eyes. This lingering mystery sparks both irritation and intrigue, prompting Felix to question whether the experience is merely a vivid dream or something far more unsettling.

As he moves through his morning routine, the strange impression refuses to fade, and subtle clues begin to surface among his acquaintances—Mildred Annister’s probing questions, a doctor’s doubtful diagnosis, and a newcomer named Hugh Gordon whose presence seems oddly connected. Felix’s curiosity drives him to explore the hidden strain behind his polished exterior, setting the stage for a psychological puzzle that will test his perception of reality and the unseen forces at work.
