Chapter 5: Shadow Work
Operation Watchtower is set in the wake of 9/11. Follow Nicholas Grayson, a haunted FBI agent; Belle Flower, a runaway from a family of circus freaks; and Senator Bryce Wexley, a man replaced by a thing that wears his face. What begins as investigation becomes revelation. What is known cannot be unmade.
Senator Wexley, amidst the aftermath of 9/11, reflects on his rising political power. As Whitman pushes him toward the presidency, Wexley struggles with unsettling memories of Alpine, where a dark secret connects him to a mysterious force, symbolized by a blood-red knife. The real Bryce Wexley, recovering from pain and trauma, learns from Trenody, a survivor of Heaven’s Gate, about a powerful Entity that has haunted humanity for eons. Trenody reveals unsettling truths about the entity’s connection to Bryce and its return.
