    Journalist Clara Vance arrives in the seemingly tranquil town of Oakhaven, seeking a straightforward story. Instead, she uncovers a profound and unsettling silence beneath its quiet facade. What begins as a routine assignment quickly devolves into a descent into a chilling reality, as Oakhaven's peculiar stillness hints at a deeper, more sinister truth. Clara finds herself observing a creeping strangeness marked by unsettling sounds and distant gazes. But the true horror lies in a recurring phenomenon that impacts the town's very perception of time and memory. Clara, however, remains an unwitting witness to Oakhaven's hidden nature, burdened by a truth too impossible to tell.

    From a New York Times–bestselling author, a woman goes ghost hunting with a handsome stranger in this “genuinely chilling” romantic suspense (RT Book Review). Elizabeth doesn’t believe in ghosts. But this time she has no choice. Family counselor Elizabeth Conner isn’t sure what to think when Maria Santiago comes to her for help. Pregnant and terrified, Maria claims to be visited each night by the ghost of a little girl, warning her to flee. Her husband, Miguel, a migrant worker at Harcourt Farms in the San Joaquin Valley, dismisses her fears as hormonal changes. Sympathetic to the young woman, Elizabeth agrees to help by contacting Miguel’s employers, who own the cottage where the young couple lives. Elizabeth immediately picks up on the deep enmity between the two Harcourt brothers: Carson, the handsome scion running the estate for his incapacitated father, and Zack, the rebellious black sheep. While Carson is more interested in Elizabeth than in her concerns, Zack grudgingly agrees to help her look into the history of the house. But even as unexpected desire draws them together, Elizabeth and Zack feel something dark and disturbing at the house. And when the cloying scent and lingering chill of pure evil surround her, Elizabeth knows something terrible has happened here before, something that has its roots in murder. . . .
