THEY CAN'T TELL IF THE HOUSE IS HAUNTED, OR IF TRAUMA IS LEARNING HOW TO SPEAK. EITHER WAY, IT'S GETTING LOUDER.
Bree knew life married to a beat cop wouldn't be easy, but she believed in Jake, in their family, and in the life they were building. Even in East Bernheim, where crime never ceases. Until the day it follows them home.
After a close call with dangerous criminals shakes their sense of safety, Bree and Jake leave the city for a new beginning in a new house, with another baby on the way. But the fresh start doesn't last.
Bree begins to hear things, whispers in her dreams, footsteps in empty rooms, and can't ignore the unmistakable feeling of being watched. Jake is changing too. When tragedy strikes on the job, grief fractures something inside him. His behavior shifts; his anger sharpens as his grip on reality slips. Alone and unsure what's real, Bree is forced to question everything: her husband, her home, and her own mind.
Is it trauma? Guilt? The criminals, they thought they had left behind? Or is something else inside the house?
Because you can't outrun danger if it lives with you.
A psychological thriller with a speculative edge, Every Fall explores the terrifying places where trauma, grief, violence, and the unexplainable collide.
