In Millbrook, silence is more than a choice-it's survival.
Sixteen-year-old Aria Matthews has never known a world beyond carefully controlled movements and whispered communications. Every sound could mean death. Every emotion is suppressed. The town operates under strict rules that protect its residents from an unknown threat that lurks just beyond perception.
When her younger brother Michael begins to exhibit strange behaviors that challenge everything Aria understands about their world, she finds herself questioning the carefully constructed reality of Millbrook. The silence marks they all bear. The mysterious Enforcement Unit. The stories they've been told.
Some secrets are better left unheard. Some truths demand to be discovered.
