Releases: November 3, 2026

A terrifying and unputdownable horror-thriller novel of fiendish puzzles, compelling mysteries and paranoia about an enigmatic hacker, a deadly online game, and a cyber weapon that makes people go insane. 
Perfect for readers of Paul Tremblay, Neal Stephenson and Mark Z Danielewski's House of Leaves, and the people who just have to know the answer.

Alex Webster is an ethical hacker who, like most hackers, prefers questions to answers. So when she and a colleague, Jay Morton, stumble across a mysterious game created by a shadowy figure known as The Helmsman, they are instantly hooked. 

As they solve increasingly bizarre puzzles and uncover The Helmsman's deranged manifesto, they are pursued by a sinister group known only as XXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX, who will do anything to stop them uncovering the Basilisk, a cognitive weapon which makes anyone who understands it lose their mind.

When Jay disappears, as they hone in on the truth of the Basilisk, Alex is left trying to piece together what’s happened to her friend, escape the awful smiling glitch people stalking her every move, and solve The Helmsman’s final puzzle.

FAQs

How Do You Ship Orders?

I take great care in making sure that all candles reach their forever homes in perfect condition. Each candle is wrapped in tissue paper and bubble wrap to protect both the labels and the glass. I also insulate the package very well with either peanuts or packing paper.

I ship everything via USPS Priority or Ground Advantage. I also use UPS depending on the weight and dimensions of your order.

If you receive your candle in less than perfect condition, be sure to contact me immediately at info@getfictional.com. I can send you a new candle or refund your purchase entirely. 

How Long Does It Take to Receive My Order?

Current processing time is about 2 weeks, give or take a day or two. Some orders may ship much sooner, but as most candles are made-to-order, I appreciate your patience! If you need something rushed, please don't hesitate to shoot me an email at info@getfictional.com.

What If My Items Arrive Damaged?

Unfortunately, it happens. I do my best to package everything to the max, but mail services can be rough on packages.

If this happens to you, snap a quick shot of the damage and packaging and email me at info@getfictional.com. I will replace all damaged items!
