THE MERIDIAN FILES


“Institutional thrillers about the gap between the document and the truth. The chart says comfortable. The record says care. But somewhere a call light is blinking into an empty hallway, and the only thing standing between a person and the dark is someone who loves them, refusing to trust the paperwork.”

The Question

What happens when the record we trust is the lie that is killing the people we love?

Every file starts the same way: a building that looks safe in daylight, a record that says everything is fine, and a person inside a room no one visits at night. The Meridian Files are about the people who start writing down the hours no one watches, and what it costs them to do it.
