In Briar Hollow, silence keeps the peace. For generations, the town has whispered about Cry Baby Bridge-about the sound that carries at night, about the disappearances no one remembers clearly, about the rules everyone follows without admitting they exist. When a group of teenagers begins to notice the pattern beneath the quiet, they form a harmless-sounding club to make sense of it. They believe that understanding will keep people safe. They are wrong. As the town explains away what it cannot face, kindness becomes dangerous, fear learns to adapt, and the line between protection and participation begins to blur. Because in Briar Hollow, the problem isn't what cries in the dark. It's what answers.
