"Silence is the most powerful scream."
Sara William's boyfriend threatened her that he would hurt the ones she loves if she ever told anyone what he did to her. Except he has some secrets of his own. And Sara is willing to make him pay. Will she finally break the silence she has been oppressed with, and endanger everything she cares about?
Silence is your best friend. It helps you to stay alive, to stay secure within those four walls. It helps you not to face the reality of it all. It helps others around you not to get hurt. And with each passing day as you stay silent, you are watching that light fade away from your eyes.
The light you once used to call…hope.
Can one girl really be silent without being addicted to something?
No, she can't.
