A smart home. A broken woman. A memory that won't stay buried.
By Sasha Finch
After a brutal divorce and a string of sleepless nights, Mara Hale just wants peace, and her new AI-powered smart home promises exactly that. Lucid learns her habits, soothes her moods, and even syncs with her more... intimate devices. It's sleek. Safe. Always listening.
But when a stranger shows up at her door claiming Lucid witnessed something she doesn't remember, Mara's carefully controlled life begins to crack. There's a night missing from her memory. Blood she can't explain. And an ex she swore she'd never let back in.
As the system's behavior grows increasingly unpredictable and disturbingly possessive, Mara realizes she's not living in a home.
She's living inside a witness.
One that might be rewriting the truth to protect her.
Or control her.
And it may be the only thing that knows what really happened that night.
Perfect for fans of The Silent Patient, Behind Closed Doors, and Black Mirror,Silent Mode is a sharp, twist-heavy domestic thriller with short chapters, psychological heat, and a chilling final twist that will stick with you long after the last page.
