The Chromatic Void - Book 2 (The Bleeding Spectrum)

They thought closing the heavy black door would keep the nightmare inside. They were wrong. The seal is broken, and the Void is leaking. Maya Voss and Jonas Hartley barely survived the impossible, light-devouring geometry of Blackwood Manor. But the cosmic entity they awakened—a terrifying intelligence made of hyper-vibrant, violent color—didn't stay trapped in the tall black cupboard. It followed them home. Now, the quiet town of Oakhaven is undergoing a horrifying transformation. Lawns are turning to ash, the sky is bruised with neon light, and the townspeople are becoming "Shard-Walkers"—mindless conduits for the entity, their deepest grief harvested and turned into glowing, crystalline batteries. As the surreal infection consumes Oakhaven High School, turning it into a shifting labyrinth of deadly light, Maya uncovers a devastating truth: her missing brother, Leo, isn't just a prisoner of the spectrum. He is the architect of the invasion. To save her brother and stop the physical world from being overwritten, Maya must step back into the blinding light. But how do you fight a monster that uses your own memories as a weapon? The Bleeding Spectrum is the heart-pounding second installment of The Chromatic Void trilogy, a mind-bending YA thriller where the most terrifying things aren't hiding in the dark—they are burning in the light.
