Préau

An inmate reaches you by mistake from a phone he shouldn't have. His retrial is in six weeks. He swears he's innocent. Do you believe him?

A message arrives from a number you don't know. It's Adam, writing from a phone hidden inside his cell. He meant to reach his sister — he reached you instead. His retrial is in six weeks, and he says he was convicted for something he didn't do.

PRÉAU is a slow-burning real-time thriller told through messages. Over the weeks, between roll calls and the yard, a fragile trust forms across the screen. Adam tells you his version, asks for help, takes risks. You weigh what to believe, what to reveal, and how far you're willing to go for a stranger who might be telling the truth — or might not.

Time is real. He writes when he can; you answer when you can. Notifications keep the thread alive even when the app is closed, right up to the hearing that will decide everything.
