Fifteen years ago, Evelyn Carter’s best friend, Lillian Gray, vanished without a trace in their small, insular town. Now a journalist, Evelyn returns under the pretense of writing a feature on the town’s history—but in reality, she’s seeking answers.
As she revisits familiar places, she senses something unsettling: objects seem to shift when she’s not looking, shadows stretch unnaturally long, and faint voices whisper from abandoned corners. The deeper she digs, the stronger the eerie sensations become. Are these supernatural remnants of the past, or is her mind unraveling?
The town resists her questions, old friends turn cold, and someone—or something—wants her to stop searching. But when she discovers Lillian’s hidden journal detailing a chilling secret, Evelyn realizes the past is far from dead. Someone is still watching. Someone is still silencing those who know too much. And if Evelyn isn’t careful, she may be the next to disappear.
