Riley has spent years trying to live a normal life, but normal doesn’t come easy when you can feel everyone’s emotions like a tidal wave crashing through your mind. Deaf since childhood and an empath by nature, she’s learned to endure the colors of other people’s feelings—until something far darker resurfaces.
She survived once. A nightmare that makes her abusive father seem almost kind. A presence that still lurks in the shadows, waiting, hungry. No amount of love from her adoptive family can erase the truth: the past isn’t finished with her.
When the darkness returns, Riley will have to embrace the truth she’s spent years avoiding. Because she can’t run from what’s inside her. And this time, the shadow might finally consume her.
Can she face what lurks in the dark?
