Eight strangers cross paths in Las Vegas. It begins with a Cadillac, a mysterious book, and a road trip to Mars. The journey begins.

Mercury's Wake

A white Cadillac stands like a sentinel in the New Mexico desert. Inside it lies a book about an astronaut’s first mission to Mars. How that book becomes a bestseller is bewildering; how it transforms those who read it is a mystery yet to be unravelled.

Mercury’s Wake – Blind Chaos is an indie audio drama that blends sci-fi, mystery, and speculative fiction.

Over a long weekend in Las Vegas, seven strangers collide in chance encounters that spiral into UFO sightings, paranormal visions, strange weather, and tragedies hinting at a larger reckoning.

Ordinary people discover extraordinary powers as they confront the mind-bending unknowns of the universe—and themselves.

This is indie storytelling at its boldest: raw, character-driven, and unapologetically strange.
