Silence was supposed to save her.
Instead, it starts taking things back. Hannah Kline is running out of ways to survive her grief. She needs quiet.
She needs money.
She needs somewhere the past can't reach her. So when a discreet advertisement offers generous pay, private accommodations, and the care of a single five-year-old boy, Hannah accepts without asking many questions. The Mercer house is immaculate. Purpose-built. Wrapped in rules meant to keep the outside world at bay. It works. At first. Because the quiet isn't natural-it's intentional. The routines aren't habits-they're ritual. And the longer Hannah stays, the more the house begins to demand: attention, obedience... and things she didn't know could be taken. Time behaves strangely. Memories don't always cooperate. And the boy in her care watches her with an unsettling patience-as if he's waiting for her to realize what she's already agreed to. Hannah's past has left her uniquely exposed, and whatever lives within the Mercer house knows exactly where to press. A quiet, merciless psychological horror where ritual strips memory, identity, and the will to resist. Because silence can be mercy.

And forgetting can feel like forgiveness.
