Twins, Dylan and Evan, live life in silence and fear. They know the sound of safe feet over dangerous ones, the consequence of being heard when they should be silent and the pain of failing to be anything but good boys. Years of trying and failing have broken Evan in ways Dylan can't heal. Dylan is trying his best to protect his best and only friend as much as he can but he is powerless against the rules. Then one day someone looks beyond the basement door, a place no one enters but them. Will they be brave enough to take hold of the hands reaching out in the darkened silence that surrounds them? If they do will they be rewarded with safety or more pain? Only time will tell and when an injured Dylan needs Evan to make the right decision for them, can he do it? Can he save them both or will he lead them into more pain than they've ever known before?
