About This Book

The creaking of old wooden floors echoes through the quiet house, mingling with the faint scent of dust and forgotten memories. In a time when silence spoke louder than words, children grapple with secrets too heavy for their young hearts. What happens when the truth is locked away, but the silence starts to break?
