The murder of sandy
In a society where supernatural abilities known as Burdens exist in secret, power is treated less like a gift and more like a curse. Some Burdens grant extraordinary abilities. Others slowly destroy the people who carry them.
When an intelligent and well-respected student named Sandy Aleric is suddenly found murdered, the incident shocks Hoshinori High. Official reports dismiss the case quickly, but to his closest friends, nothing about his death feels normal.
Povane, an ordinary student with no Burden of his own, refuses to believe Sandy’s death was random. Alongside Dexes, bearer of the Burden of Love, and Prat, wielder of the Burden of Probability, he begins investigating the truth behind Sandy’s final days.
But the deeper they search, the more disturbing the mystery becomes.
Sandy had secretly become involved with THE BURDEN — a powerful organization that claims to protect Burden users while hiding terrifying secrets beneath its authority. As hidden files surface and impossible contradictions begin appearing around the case, the trio realizes Sandy may have uncovered something far more dangerous than murder.
Something worth silencing forever.
Soon, the investigation spirals into a psychological descent filled with shifting truths, unstable powers, manipulated memories, and probabilities that no longer behave normally. Friendships begin to fracture as fear and suspicion grow between the trio themselves.
Because somewhere within the endless possibilities surrounding Sandy’s death lies a horrifying question:
Was Sandy killed for what he discovered…
—or for who he trusted?
The Murder of Sandy is a psychological mystery novel about dangerous knowledge, hidden conspiracies, and the terrifying weight of truth in a world where every power comes with a cost.
