Omschrijving

The Quiet Ones is a haunting, atmospheric psychological horror novel that pulls you into the dark spaces between memory and madness.

When forensic psychiatrist Dr. Celeste Maddox relocates to Briar Glen-a picture-perfect Appalachian community-she wants anonymity and silence. Instead, she finds whispers. Within weeks of her arrival, three teenagers vanish, then reappear traumatized, repeating fragments of a nursery rhyme no one remembers teaching them:

"The quiet ones see what others don't... the quiet ones wait while you sleep tight, then pull you screaming into the night."

As panic spreads, Celeste is drawn into the investigation by the suspicious town sheriff. But the cryptic symbols carved into trees, the eerie cassette tapes left on her doorstep, and the missing hours in the victims' memories all mirror the psychotic delusions of one of Celeste's most infamous former patients-Nora Graves, the teen who butchered her family and once claimed Celeste "put the voices there."

The deeper Celeste digs, the more reality unravels. Each cassette tape recounts horrors that echo Celeste's own childhood traumas-details she has never spoken aloud. Is someone stalking her, or has Nora's darkness followed her from the grave?

As neighbors whisper and paranoia builds, Celeste must confront the terrifying possibility that the true monster isn't in the woods. It might be inside her.

Set against the chilling beauty of a gated mountain community where every lawn is perfect and every secret is buried deep, The Quiet Ones delivers relentless suspense, cinematic terror, and an unforgettable meditation on trauma, silence, and the echoes of childhood. Lexie Laura masterfully blurs the line between psychological thriller and supernatural horror, asking one unshakable question:

What if the voices you fear aren't imaginary... but inherited?
