The Missing in the Mist
Book One of The Veil of Manali: The Recognition Archives
A stranger arrives in Manali searching for answers.
What begins as an investigation into a disappearance soon uncovers something far more disturbing.
The town avoids questions.
Records vanish.
People remember events differently.
Entire pieces of history seem to have been erased.
As hidden connections emerge between forgotten incidents, abandoned locations, and unexplained disappearances, a deeper mystery begins to surface-one that reaches beyond ordinary secrets and into the nature of memory itself.
The more answers he finds, the more reality seems to shift around him.
Strangers know things they should not know.
Memories appear where none should exist.
And certain names seem to leave traces long after they have been forgotten.
But some truths refuse to stay buried.
Some disappearances never truly end.
And some memories survive even when the people connected to them do not.
Blending mystery, psychological suspense, conspiracy, and atmospheric horror, The Missing in the Mist begins The Veil of Manali: The Recognition Archives-a haunting story where memory can be altered, identities can be rewritten, and forgetting may be far more dangerous than knowing.
Because sometimes the most terrifying question is not what happened-
but why anyone remembers it at all.
