Summary
Can science explain the paranormal—or create it?
Alex repairs furniture for a living. He knows how to find what’s loose, what’s broken, what someone else has tried to hide.
Then he hears a man crying behind a small door in his building’s basement. When it is opened, there isn’t room for anyone inside.
Alex has spent years learning to live with ADHD—with sounds he cannot ignore and work that absorbs him for hours. But he cannot account for the time he has spent at the door—or the stranger he begins to see afterward.
His wife, Sarah, is trying to return to scientific research. She wants to understand what he is experiencing, and asks him to separate what happened from what he thinks it means. Emma, an old friend whose work with paranormal investigators offers another way to listen, helps Alex pursue his questions.
Alex wants to keep searching. Sarah wants him to keep his promises. As he confides in Emma, Sarah begins to wonder how much he is leaving out.
The Quiet is a literary supernatural novel about perception, grief, and the cost of being believed.
