The Plumber

By: John Anthony Davis

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Frank Elway is a plumber. He fixes leaks, unclogs drains, and keeps the hidden systems of the city flowing. But after a strange incident in a filthy basement, he begins to hear whispers from the pipes. They show him things—the hidden sins, the secret corruptions festering in the hearts of the people he serves.

The city itself is a living system, and it is in agony. It needs a different kind of plumber. It needs Frank. Guided by a voice only he can hear, Frank starts fixing a different kind of blockage. The drug dealer poisoning his community. The priest with a vile secret. The voyeur who sells silence while stealing peace.

But as Frank becomes the system’s willing tool, he begins to lose himself to its relentless, demanding flow. To do his new work, he must cross lines he never imagined. And when the system finally demands he target someone who isn’t a monster, but a peaceful woman who represents the stillness he has forgotten, Frank must make a choice. Will he remain the plumber for a mad, thirsty god? Or will he find a way to shut the whole thing off?

The Plumber is a chilling, atmospheric descent into urban horror, where the true terror isn't in the dark, but in the pressure that builds just beneath the surface of everyday life.
