OverviewConsent A Supernatural Thriller by Geoffrey Zachary What if saying yes-just once-could damn generations? Daniel Mercer is a history teacher. A skeptic. A man of logic and lesson plans. But when a strange woman appears in his dreams-always calling his name, always reaching with a crystal in her hand-his world begins to fracture. The nightmares aren't just dreams. They follow him into daylight. His daughter Abigail draws the same woman she's never met. Neighbors begin waking at 3:33 AM in a silent panic. And when one man on Rowan Street dies in his sleep, whispering Daniel's name, the rational begins to unravel. As Daniel tries to understand the line between sleep and possession, a deeper pattern emerges-one that connects his family to ancient pacts, glassmakers in Venice, and a hidden network of influence that spans cults, politics, and generations. A journalist haunted by her brother's death. A priest whose parish dissolved into shadows. A Vatican envoy with a warning to stop. A child whose voice holds more power than prophecy. And beneath them all, an entity that only asks for one thing: willingness. But what is consent when it is whispered in dreams? What is choice when you're born into a curse? From local disappearances to global rituals, from whispered contracts to crystalline networks linking minds in sleep, Consent is a psychological and supernatural thriller that explores the terrifying terrain between free will and spiritual coercion. With every step Daniel takes toward truth, the cost of saying no-or yes-grows deadlier. As the cult's reach spreads across countries and centuries, Daniel is forced to confront a question no logic class could prepare him for: In a world where silence is safer, who truly holds the right to say yes-or no?
