A beautiful antique should only tell time. This one takes it.

When Maya moves to the big city, she finds the perfect thing to make her empty apartment feel like a magnificent antique grandfather clock. It’s a stunning piece of history with dark, polished wood, silent and still. She thinks it's the perfect decoration.

But on her first night, a single, powerful chime echoes through the rooms—a chime that marks a sudden death in a nearby building. She soon discovers the horrifying the clock is not broken, it's cursed. With every chime at midnight, another life is taken to feed its ancient power.

Realizing she is now the keeper of a terrible curse, Maya finds herself trapped by an object that cannot be moved or abandoned. She must uncover the dark secret of its creator, a mysterious 19th-century clockmaker named Silas Webb, before the clock chimes again.
