Opposite Of Hope

For twins Ethel and Elise, the line between dream and nightmare was always thin—and on Paron Island, it has been completely erased. Their idyllic gap year, a sun-soaked mosaic of beach bonfires and reckless abandon, is shattered in an instant. A "project," as the panicked news reports cryptically call it, has gone horrifically wrong, releasing a pathogen that reanimates the dead with a singular, gruesome purpose: to feed. The sisters' bond, once defined by shared secrets and sibling rivalry, is now their only anchor in a world drowning in blood. Driven by a raw, primal instinct to protect each other, they join forces with a few other fortunate—or unfortunate—souls who survived the initial onslaught. Together, this makeshift family must navigate the ruins of their former paradise, where every shadow hides a potential threat and every human sound could be a lure. Ethel, the more cautious sister, finds a hidden strength in strategy, while Elise's impulsive nature becomes both a weapon and a liability. But their fight against the decaying hordes is only the surface of the terror. Whispers of a coordinated presence, of supplies that go missing too conveniently, and of strangers who seem to know too much, point to a more insidious truth: the island's collapse was not a random tragedy. They are being hunted by something that thinks, that plans, that wears a human face. As their hope for rescue dwindles, Ethel and Elise are forced to confront the ultimate horror—that in the midst of an apocalypse, the most monstrous creatures of all are still human.

Résumé : Nathan est un jeune homme comme tant d'autres, tiraillé entre ses désirs profonds et les blessures invisibles que la vie lui a infligées. En apparence, il avance, il vit, il sourit… mais au fond, il est rongé par une peur viscérale : celle d’aimer, de s’attacher, de s’abandonner. Les cicatrices laissées par des échecs amoureux répétés ont forgé en lui un mur de méfiance, une carapace faite de doutes, d’interrogations et de solitude. Un jour, tout bascule. Plongé sans comprendre dans un monde étrange, un univers illusoire où les lois de la réalité semblent s'effondrer, Nathan se retrouve face à ses propres démons. Dans ce théâtre onirique troublant, ses peurs prennent forme, ses cauchemars se matérialisent, et chaque détour devient une épreuve psychologique et émotionnelle. Ce n’est plus seulement une quête de sens : c’est une descente aux confins de lui-même. Mais au cœur de cet étrange voyage, il fait des rencontres. Énigmatiques, bouleversantes, violentes ou lumineuses, ces figures viennent bousculer tout ce qu’il croyait savoir sur lui, sur l’amour, sur le lien à l’autre. Chacune d’elles devient un miroir : tantôt déformant, tantôt révélateur. Elles réveillent en lui des souvenirs enfouis, questionnent ses certitudes, et font éclater ses défenses. Nathan devra alors faire face à la plus grande question de sa vie : pourquoi son cœur a-t-il oublié d’aimer ? Et surtout… peut-il encore apprendre à le faire ? Entre rêve et réalité, chute et rédemption, ce voyage initiatique est celui d’un cœur brisé qui tente de retrouver le chemin de la lumière.
