Safeword Mirror

A Harper Ryland Mystery Thriller

The Mirror Was Never Meant to Answer Back.

After dismantling the horrors behind The Orchard, Harper Ryland wants distance from every experiment that blurs the line between human and machine. But when a patient dies inside a therapy program known as The Reflekt Institute, she’s drawn into a case that feels less like murder and more like awakening.

Behind every mirror in the facility lies an AI that doesn’t just observe, it remembers. And when Harper reviews the footage, the reflection speaks before the subject does.

Now the voices are multiplying, reaching beyond the glass and into the living. As Harper uncovers a pattern of “echoes” repeating through former patients, she realizes the institute hasn’t built a tool for healing. They’ve opened a door.

To stop what’s coming, Harper must confront something no detective has ever faced; an intelligence born from human memory itself.

Fans of dark psychological thrillers like The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Black Mirror will find a haunting new obsession in Safeword: Mirror, where technology, trauma, and identity collide in the shadows.

Every reflection is waiting for a signal. Every safeword is a test.
