Under The Oak Tree Manta

Within the rain-blurred streets of a dystopian metropolis, an obscure governmental division—the Department of Endings—is hidden away under the guise of an archival registry. Dr. Julian Vance, a brilliant but cold cognitive psychiatrist who abandoned medicine after a devastating patient tragedy, is brought back into the fold for a chilling reason. He is tasked with assessing individuals who appear to be living normal lives, but whose clinical evaluations reveal an impossible psychological reality: two distinct, fully functioning consciousnesses fighting for control of a single physical body. What begins as an investigation into an extreme form of mental fracturing quickly turns into a hunt. Alongside Inspector Benedict Cross—a chaotic but sharp detective exiled for chasing conspiracies—Julian discovers that these secondary minds aren't random personalities.
