About the work
And it was not from this world. It couldn't have been. Whatever caused the incident, known as “The Red Christmas,” drove Venezuela into madness.
Even after ten years since it happened, none of the survivors of that night dare to attempt to make sense of it all, including Adam. Living ostracized to hide from the brutal way of life in Caracas, he’s working tirelessly as an online freelance writer to help his brother and sister flee the country. Now, as he’s about to have enough money to take them to safety, he receives an email from his old girlfriend… which is remarkable, considering she’s been presumed dead for years.
Adam tries to think nothing of the email or the broken video file attached to it. He convinces himself that it has to be a computer virus of some kind until he discovers something terrifying: the video might link his sister to the worst night of his life, the night his girlfriend went missing, the night of “The Red Christmas.” Then, he realizes this could be a threat; his sister’s life could be in danger.
As he starts to investigate who sent the video, Adam begins to uncover dark truths about his neighbors and finds evidence that there might be a larger conspiracy at play. The problem is that he’s starting to suffer from hellish hallucinations that make him question what is real. Soon, the only clear thing to him is that someone doesn’t want him to dig up the past.
