What was meant to be a weekend celebration turned into a night no one wants to talk about. Something happened in the woods. Something almost unforgivable. Her cousin Thea won't speak of it. Her stepbrother defends the one who might be guilty.
But Amber remembers everything.
While everyone else moves on, she stays quiet-watching, listening, connecting the lies like clues. With her loyal best friend Sid by her side, Amber won't stop until she uncovers what really happened that night.
Because the forest may be silent, but the truth is still alive.
And Amber is done pretending nothing happened.
