Night Feed Book 1: The Pattern Underneath

di Judi McGuinness (Autore)

Judi McGuinness, 2026

The first anomaly looked like a rounding error. Data analyst Maya Rios almost ignored it — a subtle dip in user activity across three Newark neighborhoods, repeating with impossible precision every seventeen days. Two floors above her, night shift security monitor Eli Mercer is watching his own impossible thing: a man and a woman who appear on camera from nowhere, then vanish the same way. Neither of them knows the other has found the same pattern from a different direction. Not yet. What Maya's dashboard is really tracking isn't a crime wave. It's a system — a discipline older than either of them, feeding on a city that has learned not to notice. And the moment their two investigations converge, they stop being analysts watching a pattern from the outside. They become part of it. Thomas Okafor, a retired operative who's spent twenty years living with what one warning cost him. A rogue predator whose hunger is starting to outrun her control. A silhouette in a fifteenth-floor window that shouldn't be occupied at all. And a floor that officially stopped existing decades ago — quietly, carefully, on paper — while it kept right on running underneath. Night Feed: The Pattern Underneath is a restrained, data-driven vampire thriller for readers who want their horror procedural — where the real threat isn't just what's hunting in the dark, but the discipline, patience, and institutional silence that's kept it hidden in plain sight for decades. Told through interlocking perspectives — human and otherwise — it's a story about what happens when the people paid to watch a city finally see what's been watching back. Some patterns aren't meant to be found. Maya finds this one anyway. Or did it find her?
