Sixteen-year-old Maggie Torrance has always known she was different. She hears the things people never say, feels emotions that don't belong to her, and carries visions she wishes she could forget. She calls it the shine, but to her it feels more like a curse.
Her little brother Danny has it too, though his gift burns brighter-and more dangerously. Together, they can talk without speaking, sharing a secret thread no one else can touch. But when their father takes a winter caretaker job at the remote Overlook Hotel, Maggie realizes the voices she's fought to keep out aren't just in her head anymore. The Overlook is alive. And it wants Danny.
Maggie will do anything to protect her brother. But the deeper she reaches into the shine, the more the hotel whispers back... and the more she begins to fear that the darkness growing inside her looks far too much like her father's.
"Some gifts are meant to be hidden. Some curses refuse to stay silent."
