Don't Turn Around is a gripping psychological thriller that plays with perception, paranoia, and the fragility of the human mind.

Hector knows something is wrong the moment he steps into his apartment. The air is heavier, the silence unnatural. Then come the whispers-soft, chilling, and impossibly close. At first, he convinces himself it's just exhaustion. But as the nights go on, the feeling of being watched intensifies. Objects seem to move, shadows stretch where they shouldn't, and the mirror in his bedroom... doesn't always reflect what it should.

Maybe it has something to do with Elias, his eccentric neighbor on the third floor, always scribbling strange symbols in his notebooks. Or Saskia, his overly curious coworker who seems to know more about him than she should. Or perhaps Msr Rell, the former owner of the building, who roams the hallways like a ghost, whispering warnings he should have listened to sooner.

Then there's Noam, his childhood friend whom he hasn't seen in years-until he suddenly calls in the middle of the night, telling him to run. And Ilaria, the mysterious woman he met at a café, who claims to have gone through the same thing... before her reflection replaced her.

When his own mirror starts showing a version of himself that isn't quite right, Hector is forced to question everything-his home, his mind, and even his own identity. Because if what he's seeing is real... then he's not alone. And worse, something wants to take his place.

A chilling journey into the unknown, Don't Turn Around will keep readers hooked until the very last page.

He yells at her with hatred, he blamed her for being the one will cause a woman to be beaten; He didn't want to be that kind of man. However, what he lived with her caused him to bring out what he hated the most about himself from within. -Forget it love- said a woman who was next to her- it's not worth it- this dog was supposed to be her friend, she was supposed to support her just like she did; however he managed so that he and she hated each other and thus be able to steal it. The woman on the floor does not know how much she was framed and harmed by her naivety, nor did she know that this was the beginning of her misfortunes. Because of that woman she did not stop suffering, wherever she went she suffered verbal or physical abuse and everything was orchestrated by this woman; she didn't know until she was about to faint. "Why?" She asked this unarmed woman without knowing why she hated him so much. She never did anything to hurt him. She just laughed viciously without answering him, she didn't have to waste her time with an insect; leaving La to die imprisoned in the house where she was kidnapped. "Answer me!" She got up from her bed screaming "Eh? This looks like my room; Did I reincarnate myself in the past?" She ran to the bathroom just to see that her assumption was correct. She thanked the heavens for this second chance by promising that she wouldn't be fooled a second time.

When dreams stop being dreams, things get confusing. Anna is back - back in a place she once thought was just a product of her imagination. The silvery locks, bluish-grey eyes, and the pointed ears prove that much. Her dreams were memories. The same memories that led up to her death... well, her first death, before she slipped through a crack in the Halls of Mandos. Ash, blood, and fire haunt her, the sounds of a dying, burning city echoing in her head whenever she tries to rest. Coming back from death is never easy. Death leaves scars on one's very soul, but who better to heal those wounds than the company of her kin? There's only one problem. Returning to her kin in Arda means facing the elf she sacrificed her life for. The one whose heart she broke all those years ago. But she doesn't have an option to stay away. Every day the call of the sea grows stronger for him, and it's not his time just yet. He is their emissary, and it's time they finally gave something back. Even if that something happens to be the love he's convinced he lost years ago.
