Eight-year-old Lillian has always known she was different.
She notices things she shouldn't. Knows what people mean before they say a word. Adults call her imaginative. Quiet. Sensitive. But Lillian knows better. Keeping her head down and pretending to be normal has become second nature.
Then tragedy changes everything.
Suddenly living with her uncle Jonathan, (a struggling artist barely holding his own life together) Lillian finds herself in a home filled with unfamiliar routines, unanswered questions, and a guardian doing his best to connect with a little girl he doesn't fully understand.
Jonathan wants to help. He wants to protect her. But the more time he spends with Lillian, the more impossible it becomes to ignore the strange things happening around her.
The way she seems to know things she shouldn't.
The way she answers questions before people ask them out loud.
The way she can look at someone and see straight through them.
And when Lillian begins sensing a frightened child she's never met, someone reaching for her from somewhere she can't explain, the fragile world she and Jonathan are trying to build starts to crack.
Lillian isn't imagining things.
Something is happening to her.
A tense and atmospheric supernatural thriller with a deeply emotional heart, The Quiet One: Part I is a gripping story of grief, found family, and a remarkable gifted young girl caught in a mystery bigger than she realizes.
Perfect for readers drawn to gifted child protagonists, unsettling suspense, and page-turning paranormal mysteries-with secrets waiting beneath the surface and answers that only raise darker questions.
Oh, and spoiler alert: Her imaginary friend?
It's not imaginary.
