Three Days Before the Massacre
You are Kate. Survivor of a serial killer known only as "The Artist." The FBI placed you in witness protection in Miracle Miles, a small town where nothing ever happens. Your new life is simple: sleep at the motel, work the night shift at Billy's Burger, repeat.
But your psychiatrist warned them. You shouldn't be outside a hospital. The hallucinations. The panic attacks. The visions that feel more real than reality itself.
A Routine That Crumbles
Work the Night Shift
Take orders from the late-night crowd. Prepare burgers, fries, coffee. Serve customers before they lose patience. Your toxic boss Ernie doesn't care about you—he just needs someone to replace Tina, who's gone to rehab. Again.
Meet Broken People
Bikers, addicts, cops, priests, a girl looking for her missing sister... Everyone who walks through that door carries secrets. Some of them seem to know things about you. Things they shouldn't know.
Question Everything
Your mind plays tricks. Faces shift. Shadows move. The FBI says you're safe. Your doctor says you're bait. The priest says the Whisperers are coming. Who do you trust when you can't even trust your own eyes?
