Summary

When an old “Employee of the Month” plaque is rediscovered and hung in a cozy café, a flawless new coworker named Charlotte mysteriously appears—charming, skilled, and universally adored. But as the plaque’s sinister SCP-254 properties take hold, Charlotte’s perfection curdles into obsession, and anyone who threatens her place begins to disappear.
