GHOST CHANNEL / SILENT CROSSING

A signal appears where it shouldn't. No origin. No explanation. No error. The man who notices it no longer exists — officially. He lives quietly now, watching nothing, involved in nothing. But systems have long memories. And so does he. Boats leave Havana after dark. Refugees on the surface. Something far more deliberate below. Alone, the pieces mean nothing. Assembled, they reveal a network already in motion — built to stay invisible. Some channels carry data. Some carry people. Some were never meant to be found.
