Emma Walker thought she'd left her past behind. A single mother fleeing silent traumas she can't name; she arrives in a sleepy town searching for peace. But something isn't right. Her neighbor is too kind. Her son's drawings are too disturbing. And the name "Eleanor" keeps surfacing-spoken in whispers, scrawled on hidden notes, echoing in nightmares Emma doesn't remember having. When a local woman vanishes and the trail leads to the long-shuttered Red Door Clinic, Emma is pulled into a chilling mystery-one that stretches back decades, into the shadows of illegal adoptions, lost children, and a journalist who got too close to the truth.
What Emma discovers will shatter everything she believes about family, identity, and the price of silence. Because the past isn't done with her. And the neighbor next door... isn't who she seems.
